Formidable 96 Caroni with the typical heavy sweetness, rich dirty tar notes, wood and a good hint of chocolate. Relatively pleasing on the nose, but fireworks on the palate. Impressive - a treat.

Very lovely Caroni 🤤 If you like your tongue being run over by a road roller full of dirty tar and a hint burnt rubber, you will love this monster.

Though heavy qnd intense this one was a bit lighter on the rubber and tar notes than the others. On the other hand it's very well balanced. Again light fruit and I love the caramel in the back. What a lovely tasting and I look forward to our next planned Caroni tasting.
