TRC Caroni Trinidad HTR 1998 25yr 62,5%

RX17793 Very good Column Still Rum Single Cask Above 250€
“Rich and balanced rum with remarkable fruity notes. Definitely enjoyable.”

The Trinidad HTR rum from Caroni distillery is a unique blend with striking fruity notes and rich, complex flavours. Users have complimented its intense fruitiness, balanced sweetness, and delectable traces of oak, caramel, dark chocolate, and mango. Despite its high ABV, it's recommended for its smooth taste, with some suggesting the addition of water to enhance its sweetness and reduce the rubbery flavour. Its unique aroma embracing oak, rubber, kiwi and nutty scents make it truly distinctive. This 1998 distilled rum is impressive for its well-rounded, balanced character and the fruchtige (fruity) surprise it brings. Although it’s not heavily dominated by the typical HTR aromatics, its elegant sweetness and unexpected fruit punch make it a standout. This rum is perfect for those seeking a sophisticated, fruit-forward experience.

“Erster Eindruck: Durch das viele abfüllen der Samples bin ich leider nicht wirklich dazu gekommen, diesen in Ruhe zu analysieren. Aber der erste ist schon sehr gut. Denke korrektur wird noch erfolgen.”
