    Excellent Caroni with a very nice sweetness. Almost a noble dessert. The alcohol could be better integrated on the palate.

    Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Spannendes Geschmacksprofil mit Süsse aus dem Eichenholz (Vanille, Karamell, Schokolade), dazu dezente tropische Früchte (Mango), würzige Bitterkeit und typische HTR-Noten (Teer, Benzin, Gummi).
