Very mysterious rum. A T.D.L but after a longer time in the glass the Caronino notes come out easily. I'm torn as to whether I think it's a great rum or just average. But right now the wacky outweighs the average. But it needs a long time in the glass, then the alcoholic taste gradually disappears. Tasted another 2003 Samaroli and Nobilis. In my opinion, this one is not at all comparable to these profiles. It somehow picks me up. Edit: went through the obligatory CubaLibre test again. I still find it interesting. A slightly different flavor than Mixer, but a pretty good one. I like the taste. More like the slightly dirty CubaLibre.
For me, more of a TDL with a Caroni note than a Caroni with TDL notes. Not top class, but still tastes good to me. It lacks some fruit on the nose.
Interestingly, the toffee note dominates here at first, before the tropical fruits and some mint are added on the palate. Interesting, aromatically versatile, but without the freshness of other TDLs from the 2000s, as the toffee flavors mentioned at the beginning and the alcohol are still too present.
On the nose, initially chemical in the direction of PVC soil / phenol, then later yellow fruit, baked goods, vanilla, plus light mentholated, dirty notes. Workshop, passion fruit and mocha on the palate. For me a TDL, but the 2003s I've had in my glass so far (Excellence Rhum, Whisky Jury) were much better.
