    Ho avuto la fortuna di assaggiare questo rum direttamente da chi lo ha imbottigliato! Un caroni elegantissimo dove si mischiano le sue solite note di catrame e medicinali a note più dolci di frutta, crema e cioccolato! Una parte che non ho riscontrato in nessun altro caroni è il sentore presente di lievito che si percepisce anche leggermente nel gusto!

    I don't know what to say. But this Caroni is really great;-) Nice rubber, solvent and dirt on the nose. Typical Caroni on the palate. Very medicinal, rubber, tar and leather are recognizable. Wow, 1a :)

    29.01.2022 The big Caroni tasting with old rum buddies, good food, snacks and a lot of talking about old times. Notes Dark in colour. Nose Round, wood, light roasted, fruity, pineapple, workshop, light mint, faint floral. Palate Fresh, wood, light smoke, fruits, leather, mint, naturally sweet, floral, workshop. Finish Long, medium dry, wood, citrus, light chocolate.

    Surprisingly very nice filling from wild parrot. Again, a very technical nose, which I have been seeing a lot lately with the 1998 caroni. Slightly sweet, yet very technical and finishes with a slightly minty flavour profile. Perfectly untegrated alcohol and a long warming finish.
