The HTR Caroni 1998 is a distinctive rum produced at the renowned Caroni distillery in Trinidad and selected by Bristol Classic Rum for bottling. It is made from molasses using a column still and aged for 17 years, with an ABV of 40%. This rum captivates its drinkers with a nose containing notes of tobacco, dried fruit, oak, brown sugar, and a metallic touch. Flavors of diluted, dirty, spice, oak, and cigar emerge as they sip.

“Ähnlich wie der VSOC Caroni von Bristol eine sehr einladende Nase die im Geschmack enttäuscht, da es wieder zu verwässert ist. Minimal besser als der VSOC da man hier immerhin noch eine gute Zigarre trinkt.”
