Second and final tasting (the bottle is now empty)I have the impression that the medicinal notes have intensified in the time the bottle has been open. Resin has been added. The same on the palate. I did not remember it so intense.finish remains restrained. Better than I remembered him ( 3 points).This is my first Caroni and I'm honestly a little disappointed because I expected more. But so it is with expectations 😁Insgesamt but still a good rum.

I begin my education little by little on the Caroni and this one is very pleasant because more consensual than his friends of Velier.

Nice Caroni notes on the nose. Taste wise not very present, however. Feels a little bit watered down.

Un poil trop sombre et amère. Ça reste un bon Caroni.

The palate and finish are surprisingly aligned. Nose is well balanced with some spice and burnt brown sugar. Real nail polish and rubber tyres in the mouth with a spicy finish which lingers and then dissipates. It’s a full bodied but not outrageous rum, good but not spectacular and given the Caroni “halo” was hoping for more
