“The nose is already incredibly deep and complex. Rubber, varnish, intense wood and a light mint. One finds here everything one expects from Caroni. Heavenly. On the palate you find a real Caroni concentrate. Spice, rubber, wood, tropical fruit are perfectly melded together by the long, tropical aging. Absolute Caroni Champions League!”

“Tolle Nase! Am Gaumen komplex, etwas typische dreckige Caroninoten, die sehr gut eingebunden sind! Laaanger Abgang! Phantastisch! Epic Velier Caroni Tasting: wahnsinnige Komplexität, Power, muss ein 92er sein, langer Abgang. Für mich die Caroni-Champions League!”
