Highly praised as a mellow, beginner-friendly Caroni with all the key markers in a softer, round package that drinks easily, even if depth and intensity are dialed back.
Curious explorers who want a softer, approachable entry into the Caroni style, with tar, leather and tobacco notes but without the aggressive, dirty punch of higher-proof releases.

Eher leichter Caroni, der aber alle typischen Marker wie Teer, Gummi, Leder, Tabak, Holz und etwas getrocknete Früchte mitbringt. In Nase und Gaumen noch etwas Menthol. Wirkt insgesamt aber etwas verdünnt
Amazingly round. Normally the 2000s are much dirtier and less round. This one is bottled a little diluted, but very round overall.
A rather lighter Caroni, the aroma is not extremely pronounced, with tobacco, leather and dried fruit. Quite subtle notes of eucalyptus in the chiti and again leather dominates, tobacco a slight tartiness. The finish is weaker at first, shorter, the closer I get to finishing the glass the more dominant I would say the finish becomes. For me it won't offend, but won't particularly excite heavy caroni lovers.
Unround, watery, interchangeable. Absolutely nothing anyone needs to buy. Interchangeable is the key word here.
