Caroni... 43°seulement! on se dit qu'il va manquer des degrés car nous y sommes désormais habitués. Mais non et ce rhum nous le prouve clairement. Il faut faire abstraction du psy et des belles photos sur les bouteilles car c'est très gourmand, très agréable et suffisamment complexe et bien foutu. Personnellement j'ai adoré. 2eme passage : confirme tout à fait le premier 😁
"Première expérience Caroni qui ne déçoit pas, on est sur un produit complexe et unique ! En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Complexe, Fruits secs, Café, Amande, Vanillé, Cuir En bouche : Mentholé, Toasté, Tabac, Fruits confits, Ananas La finale plutot orientee vers : Menthol"
Despite a significant reduction, we have a quite complex and expressive Caroni. Profile is very well balanced both dirty and round. Biggest drawback is the finish which is not very long and less complex. A very good surprise though 👌
Un nez très gourmand avec de beaux marqueurs Caroni. La bouche est assez fruitée, l'aspect Caroni est présent mais pas exubérant. La finale est sèche et voit le retour de la gourmandise perçue au nez. Un Caroni de tous les jours ou pour commencer. La réduction est très réussie.
