„Mein erster Caroni und ich bin eher positiv angetan. Gummi ist zwar bei diesem Fass 193 da, aber mich erinnert dieser Rum eher an einen Agricole XO. Karamell, Leder, erdig, holzig, Früchte und Gummi. Im Mund herb, holzig und scharf, definitiv keine leichte Kost, man merkt aber, dass eine hohe Komplexität vorliegt, da es zeitgleich auch süß und floral ist. Im Abgang verstärkt rauchig (womöglich Teer) und wieder sehr komplex.“

„Auch sehr leckerer Rum aus diesem Set … für mich ist das ganze Set immer noch erstaunlich günstig bzw. Weniger überteuert als andere vergleichbare (oder schlechtere) Caronis. Das Fass 193 liegt für mich gleich aus oder knapp hinter dem 190. je nach Tagesform.“

„This rum is part of a four cask selection set. Cask 53, cask 190, cask 193 and cask 216. This particular one definitely needs a few drops of water, which will release a lot of flawours and also reduce the alcohol burn.“

„Brennt zu stark in Nase und Mund. Der Alkohol ist nicht gut eingebunden. Kein rundes Zusammenspiel der Komponenten. Da war die Nummer 190 besser - 2/4“

„Eine angenehme Zigarre hinten raus, nachdem man sich die Zähne geputzt hat, bevor eine Teermaschine auf Eichenrädern diese gerollt hat. Angenehm komplex und ausgewogen. Besser als Fass 190 aus dieser Serie.“

„2eme caroni pour moi donc peu de comparaison possible. Mais le gout de caoutchouc me dirige direct vers cette distillerie a l'aveugle. Le cote fume presque tourbé m'a fait hesiter avec un whisky.“
