How does this rum taste?
The Rum Artesanal Trinidad Rum HTR is a limited edition from the Caroni distillery, known for its tar, minty, and dirty nose.

And another continental '98 Caroni. Nice piece, contains the typical notes known from this non-tropical vintage. Personally, far too one-dimensional and meaningless for me. Somehow something is missing here. In short, when you swallow it, you can count down from 10 and then the experience is already over. There are better wines from this vintage.
Zugänglicher Caroni. Ideal, wenn man in die spannende Welt von Caroni eintauchen möchte.
GRF13: This is a Caroni that plays the field more on the dirty side. I still like the nose best, as at least there is still a noticeable amount of fruit there. 8.6 It loses something on the palate. It's not complex enough for me and the alcohol is not particularly well integrated. 8.2 The finish is ultimately far too short for a Caroni. A pretty good entry-level Caroni.
Sehr ölige Konsistenz im Glas mit dicken einzelnen Tropfen, die träge ins Glas zurückrinnen. Die Nase gefällt mir schon sehr gut: reichhaltig und intensiv, Caroni-Dreck ist ebenfalls da und der Alkohol scheint gut eingebunden zu sein. Interessanterweise finde ich auch Waldhonig! Am Gaumen viel Süße und fruchtig aber auch ausreichend Gummi und Teer 😉 und wieder Waldhonig. Gleitender Übergang zum langen Nachklang mit mehr Fassnoten und Trockenheit neben dem Caroni-Dreck. Für mich ein sehr stimmiger Caroni. Honig und Minze ergeben eine spannende "medizinische" Mischung. Preis und Genuss stehen m.M.n. bei dieser Lost Distillery aber schon lange in keinem gesunden Verhältnis mehr.
