    A very round Caroni with a lot of pastries, vanilla, coconut, ... Way more expressive than a 1985 Old Legend and way better integrated alcohol than a Tasting Gang. One of the best Caroni of this kind 🥰

    Nice sweet and mild taste

    Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Erinnert etwas an die typischen Süssnoten aus Barbados - Vanille, etwas Schokolade, Karamell, dazu geröstete Nüsse. Sehr gefälliger Blend mit hohem Anteil an Light Caroni - wer die klassischen dreckigen Caroni-Noten sucht ist hier falsch.

    Sehr guter Caroni. Ist im Gesamt-Linuep mit anderen High-End-Abfüllungen aber etwas abgefallen.
