"Today we had another tasting with a few surprises in store. This one is not your standard Caroni. Probably a good "starter Caroni". "

"Good thing it says Caroni, otherwise I would have guessed a mediocre Ten Cane with poorly integrated alcohol."

"Such a nice floral and fruit taste. Of course tar and oil is still there but not so aggressive. Pretty delicate"
