A pleasant, rather restrained nose. But on the palate comes a wonderful roastiness, chocolate and umami. Very horny 1998 Caroni!

Strong and edgy - fiery spice, gum and tar notes, wood, coffee, roasted notes and also a little licorice in the finish. There is also a subtle heavy sweetness of dried fruit and caramel. Very solid 98 Caroni.

Back on track with a nicely balanced release with all the right flavours. Love the chocolate and raisin that blends well with a light coffee note in between the tar and rubber.
