“Top Caroni and an excellent representative of the great 96 vintage. Balanced, complex, Caroni-typical notes, dark fruits and beautiful sweetness. An ideal entry rum into the high-quality world of tropically aged Caronis with now also not quite so easily affordable, but still relatively good value for Caroni.”

“A 1996 Caroni that doesn't deny its vintage, tar and tropical fruit in equal measure. A smell of marzipan gives this rum a pastry-like quality. You can still find it in a few stores, but at inflated prices, as if it were about to go up in price, which is possible given the quality of this beverage. More mellow than Navy Rum 100th and Kill Devil 1998 65.5%, but even more complex and deep in flavor. Delicious! Tasted again and the fruit and sweetness took precedence over the tar. A real delight! Clearly an undervalued rum. The end of the bottle is delicious.”
