How does this rum taste?
RumX members love this approachable Caroni for its classic nose: tar, dried fruit and oak with a hint of smoke. At 40%, it’s gentle and easy to sip, showing herbal-vanilla undertones and a woody, sherry-tinged profile. While many wish for more strength and a longer finish, it remains a simple, enjoyable entry to Caroni, well-regarded by 43 reviewers.

Tasted by a friend. Very good, I love Caroni! Didn't feel the sherry barrel aging. Too light.
This is a great example of why rum should not be watered down. Most of the profile is a mere ghost of what it could have been.
Le seul Caroni de 2003, il fallait le goûter. Le nez est tout à fait Caroni avec du goudron, du caramel et du bois, mais aussi du citron vert et un côté végétal assez net. Globalement un très beau nez. La bouche est acqueuse, marquée par la dilution. Il faut aller chercher les arômes de fruits, d’atelier mécanique et de végétal. La longueur est moyenne et nettement trop courte pour un Caroni. Un beau rhum, avec beaucoup de buvabilité mais la dilution l’a beaucoup trop amaigri pour mon goût. Dommage pour le seul exemple du millésime 2003.
Top Einsteiger Caroni mit bestem PLV. Mit mehr % wäre das ein hammer Rum.
