“Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Top Caroni and an excellent representative of the great '96 vintage. Balanced, complex, Caroni-typical notes, dark fruit and beautiful sweetness. An ideal entry-level rum into the high-quality world of tropically aged Caronis with a price-performance ratio that is no longer quite so easy to finance, but still relatively good for Caroni. Excellent.”

“Grandiose Velier Caroni. 1996 produced outstanding Caronis. This blend from different batches is able to marry everything that makes Caroni so special. Typical dirty notes paired with a good deal of complexity.”

“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.”
