    Heavy, woody Caroni benchmark
    Who is this rum for?

    If you already enjoy full-proof 2000 Caronis, this pushes the same profile to the max—huge wood and tar, classic Caroni dirt, plus just enough fruit and mint to keep it addictive.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, those sensitive to nearly 70% ABV, or drinkers who dislike tarry, rubbery, heavily oaked profiles or are looking for easygoing, sweet sippers at a gentle price.

    Ebenfalls ein Top Caroni aus dem 2000er Jahrgang, sehr sehr lecker und easy über 90.

    Beau Caroni sur le goudron, lourd et puissant mais bien dans ce que j’aime

    Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Fass trifft Minze, prägnanter Fasseinfluss, dazu sehr präsente Minzaromen. Schönes Aromenspiel. HTR-Noten spielen eher untergeordnet mit. Sehr guter Caroni und typischer Vertreter aus dem 2000er Jahrgang.

    Sehr gute, intensive Nase. Am Gaumen viel Holz (ohne zu viel zu sein). Exzellenter 2000er Caroni.
