    Herbal water. A little mint flavor in the middle of the tongue. Unfortunately extremely watery, but 40% rum from "back in the day", that's how it was. A nice rarity, but nothing you have to drink.

    Almost transparent, this rum resembles an old Jamaican stale diluted with herbs, a light funk and tropical fruit. On the palate, the alcohol is present, then some fruit, green apple and mirabelle plum. And then that's it. Like an extreme dilution of aromas. The fruit saves a lacklustre finish. Absolutely no Caroni here, not on the nose, not on the palate, not even in the empty glass. My first "Providence", a total disappointment for a Caroni fan, but not a bad rum, just without depth or relief.

    28.03.2015 Whiskymessen Out for myself this time and met up with new enthusiasts and we had a great party after the event. Notes Light in colour. Nose Light, light wood, mint, herbs, light fruits, plum. Palate Thin, diluted, light wood, plum, dried fruit, light mint. Finish Short, light wood, thin, diluted, dried fruit, light mint.

    The nose identifies it as rum. In the mouth, however, very little comes through due to the proper reduction. Tastes like gummy bears soaked in water. Not very sparkling and not identifiable as Caroni. It's perfectly drinkable, but has no identity for me.
