How does this rum taste?
Most reviewers are intrigued by the bold and unique Caroni profile here—rich in rubber, varnish, and woody notes with hints of black tea and polish. The aroma draws people in, offering classic Caroni character, but many find the taste intensely bitter, medicinal, and astringent, making this a true beast best experienced for curiosity or as a conversation starter. This is recommended mainly for collectors and hardcore fans seeking rare, challenging rums.

This is the worst of the 3 releases. Kind of like smelling, locking and drinking a chemical factory. Maybe they brewed this at BASF 😂
Great incredible but at the end very hot and question how much drinkable
This is times full on the face! Bitterness, gasoline, varnish, wood. Phew, it is extreme in any case. But to drink maybe then rather not...
Disappointing for a Caroni, but for those who like to lick fresh tar, it might be okay. Update: I've now tried it again with a little distance. There's something about it, somehow it reminds me of my younger years when I was 14 and took two puffs of a menthol cigarette before I got caught. I just had a taste like that in the finish. It's a very cool piece in any case. The smell is really great, but you can't say the same about the taste.
