That Boutique-Y Rum Company Caroni HTR 20yr 54,7%

RX5319 Very good 1,875 bottles Under 250€

The HTR from Caroni distillery in Trinidad is an exquisite 20-year old, molasses-based rum, bottled by independent bottler That Boutique-Y Rum Company. With a limited release of just 1875 bottles at 54.7% ABV, this rum has a distinct and unique character. Users of the RumX portal appreciate the prominent Caroni notes on the nose, with the scent of rubber, tar, brown sugar, spice, and roasted aromas. The flavor profile features toasted, rubber, caramel, tobacco, and chocolate nuances, making it a well-rounded and enjoyable rum. Some tasters observed the development of more intense medicinal notes over time, while others found it to be a more easy-sipping and balanced Caroni compared to some other releases. Overall, this full-bodied rum delivers a satisfying experience, even though it might not be quite as spectacular as some Caroni enthusiasts had hoped for.

“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.”
