    How does this rum taste?

    The Reserve Rum of Trinidad Sherrywood is a distinctive offering from the Caroni distillery, carefully selected and bottled by Bristol Classic Rum. Originating from Trinidad, it is distilled from molasses and aged for 10 years, boasting a 43% ABV. Users describe complex aromas of caramel, prunes, and raisin, with a subtle woodiness. On the palate, it's characterized by caramelized, roasted, and sherry notes, with a dark brown ensemble. Reviewers find its finish medium in length, with a sweet and lightly smoky profile, though opinions vary on its sherry influence. This rum intrigues with its robust, rustic charm balanced against subtle, lighter wood and fruity elements.

    Rating (0-10)
    7.7/10 18 reviews

    The palate of this Rum is more aggressive, with more wood. The palate is also a little less elegant, and the finish is more rustic and much less elegant. A very interesting Rum, however

    Color: Chestnutoloroso Sherry Aroma: Mild, leather, toffee, tropical fruit (banana), roasted almond. Toasted. Taste: Mild in the mouth with toffee. Medium intensity. Unpleasant taste of bad sherry when swallowing. Woody, nutty. Finish: Medium length Bitter aftertaste, old rotten wood, bad sherry. Conclusion: Does not taste good, dominated by bad sherry.

    My first Caroni, very pleasing, beautiful! Caramel dominates.
