This is also, clearly, a Caroni, though a diluted one. Again a lot of wood kind of messing up everything. The nose is wonderful, heavy even intense with rubber and tar, slightly fruity with some olives. In the back some burnt sugar. The palate on the other hand can't deliver on the nose. A thin caroni, bitter with tannins and a lot of wood. A bit of fruit, caramel, toffee and spices follow. The finish is long bitter and again with a heavy load of wood.
