    How does this rum taste?

    Heavy Trinidad Rum (LMDW) HTR, produced by Caroni distillery and bottled by Velier, offers a unique blend of depth and complexity prized by rum enthusiasts. Distilled from molasses in 2000 using a pot still, this cask-strength delight (68.4% ABV) combines tar, rubber, and tropical fruit on the nose, with smoky, tar-like oak and vanilla flavors. The rum captivates with its dark color, fruity and smoky aroma, and a long, warm finish tinged with wood, tar, and roasted notes. Limited to just 210 bottles, it encapsulates the profound intensity typical of Caroni's 2000 vintage, impressing with its fine balance of potency and finesse.

    Jour 24 du calendrier Samples de luxe. Splendide nez qui me plonge dans l’univers Caroni. Pas un Caroni dur et sans concessions, un Caroni complexe et fruité. Ouch ! La bouche est puissante, les arômes massifs s’arrondissent pourtant assez vite et s’entremêlent. Une fête du village avec des maisons de vieux bois au cheminées fumantes. Mille odeurs mêlant fruits trop mûrs et voitures qui ont cuit au soleil de l’après-midi. La finale révèle le potentiel de ce rhum avec d’autres expressions, puis d’autres encore. Infinie et parfaite. Un rhum d’exception, surtout pour sa finale, mais il réserve sans doute encore de bonnes surprises à l’oxydation. Le verre vide fait la part belle à un atelier mécanique tout proche.
