„Ein wunderschöner Caroni!! Eher zum Genießen. Viel getrocknete Früchte, Holz und Gewürze. Flüssiges Lakritz. Teer und Gummi sind insgesamt nur schwach wahrnehmbar. Sehr rund, warm und ausgewogen. Ich hatte Glück, eine halbvolle Flasche in einem Restaurant erstehen zu können.“

„The Epic Velier Caroni Tasting: Komplex mit pointierter Süsse und schweren Fruchtnoten, die durch die Fasseinflüsse, herbe Würzigkeit sowie dezente Caroni-Drecknoten einen Kontrast erhalten. Eines der Releases aus der vermutlichen „Paxarette-Ära“, das trotz 24-jähriger tropischer Lagerung mit Raffinesse und Vielschichtigkeit punkten kann.“

„Epic Velier Caroni Tasting: Schön rund, eher fruchtig, wenig dreckig, vielleicht nicht ganz so komplex. Abgang nicht ganz so lang.“

„Yesterday we had a great evening in my friends man-cave. Lots of laughter and wonderful rums. Also a rum with heavy oak. With a drop of water more flavours are released and after 30 minutes it gets even crisper.“

„Le nez est impressionnant, très expressif, gourmand comme il faut, bien équilibré. La bouche est tout aussi gourmande, un peu plus fruitée. Un tout grand Caroni, je le place au dessus du 1992 vache réduit par exemple.“

„Stunning nose with an impressive balance and complexity. Palate lacks a bit of round notes and feels slightly too much dry. This sample comes from a recently opened bottle and might evolve in a good way. I feel like it has more to offer with oxydation.“
