    "Ein Weltklasse 96er Caroni! Caroni-Aroma pur, mit ordentlich Power! Noch dazu eine geile Aufmachung und wenn man den Ausgabepreis bedenkt, muss man anfangen zu weinen. Eine atemberaubende Abfüllung, die sich hinter den Veliers nicht zu verstecken braucht!"

    "Ein Gaumenwolf im Nasenschafspelz. Irre, irre, irre! Was für eine Aromenexplosion im Mund! Und dann noch zum Ausgabepreis von 7,50 EUR für das 10cl-Fläschchen. 🤓 Was will man mehr!? Ich hänge mich mal weit aus dem Fenster: Wer diesen Rum getrunken hat, braucht keinen Caroni von Velier mehr. 🤷‍♂️😍"
