Caroni immediately comes to mind on the nose and palate. Great sweetness! However, the alcohol is too present for me to give it a better rating.
On the nose the 24y and 25y Cadenhead‘s bottling are very close. Woody and some umami notes with a hint of fruity notes (grapes). On the plate both are again similar: Quite balanced on the palate with more vanilla and sweetness as well as fruits. The 25y gravitates a bit mir towards roasted and woody notes. Both very enjoyable.
Once rested it was like a light Caroni. The rubber and tar was there with some light fruit and chocolate. Love how well the wood and ABV was integrated.
My first thought was Caroni, the dirty, sweet and fruity variety... actually my thing, if, yes, if the alcohol was better integrated... it has a strong counterweight to the great flavors, and so the great bottling gets out of balance. Despite everything, a good rum
