Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Together with cask #5613, the best Caroni ever for me. A little more subtle on the nose, with the full aroma package of the Guyana Stock HTR Caronis on the palate: vanilla, caramel, oak, fresh mint, dried tropical fruits, plus the dirty HTR aromas. You can't get much more than that. The ultimate in tasting and therefore for me the absolute top of the Caroni Veliers.
Egg, what an awesome piece, now the new best rated rum on my part :-) The nose has great Caroni notes, tar, rubber and tobacco. On the palate also typical Caroni, tobacco, tar and very intense. Thanks Mitch for getting me this absolute highlight. Let's see which rum cracks the 10.0 ;-)
Eerily complex nose (2nd among all Caronis tasted) and perfection emerges on the palate. It's all there: outstanding Caroni DNA and pure elegance. On the palate, my number 1 from the entire Velier Caroni range.
Exceptional rum, but I liked #5613 a little better. But we are talking about absolute top class here, which probably also depends on the form of the day.
