"Über die Nähe zwischen TDL und Caroni wurde ja durch Steffens Buch schon detailliert berichtet. Aromatisch finde ich auch hier HTR-typische Noten vor und halte deshalb einen Blend aus TDL und Caroni für wahrscheinlich. Gefällt mir sehr gut, angesichts der Rahmendaten (Alterung, Geschmacksprofil) durchaus ein PLV-Tipp für mich - heute kosten weitaus weniger ausgewogene offizielle Caroni-Releases schon deutlich mehr. Im Direktvergleich zu anderen Caronis der gehobenen Kategorie natürlich etwas im Hintertreffen, aber für die zweite Reihe ein sehr ansprechendes Release."
"This is not a cheap rum but we'll worth the present price tag. A nicely balanced rum with a light dry touch to the palate. I may have to add a bottle to my collection. A very old lady indeed and a good one."
"Interesting "mixture" of Caroni and Foursquare. Nose very good. Palate can't quite keep up. A great experience."
"Relativ dreckig und ganz leicht an caroni erinnernd. Dazu ungewöhnlich wenig Holz für einen 31y alten Rum. Sehr mild und ausgewogen, fast schon süffig! Alkohol top integriert. Lecker! Aber nicht unbedingt 400€+ wert. Dennoch der wohl bis dato für mich beste richtig alte "TDL" den ich probiert hatte. Würde mich nicht wundern wenn hier ein paar Schlücke Caroni mit rein gewandert wären! 😃"
