"Also a retaste for me and again I stick to the initial score. A light Caroni in my ming but the overall balance is really good. In my mind the price tag on this rum is high compare to what you get. That said it's still a pretty good Caroni. Not super heavy in the traditional notes, but a more controlled version. The rubber and tar is there as well as nice wood and light fruit with light spice, mint and also herbal notes."
"Nose is comparably delicate. Dominated by some Caroni notes alongside sweet/malty notes and some fruits. Quite approachable Sweet and fruity on the palate; some mint and cacao as well. Dirty notes are only present on the finish alongside some menthol. Very tasty. However, too delicate to excite friends of the dirty profile imho."
"Ein netter Caroni, aber es gibt bessere. Er gehört definitiv nicht in dir dreckige Ecke. Eher geeignet um jemanden die Tür zu Caroni zu öffnen. Danke DomM fürs Sample."
"Erstaunlich gut! Kein dreckiger Caroni, es dominieren eher die Bourbon-Noten."
