    09.11.2019 Had a nice evening with friends and bottles wrapped in tinfoil ☺️ Notes. Dark in colour. Nose: wood, roasted, light rubber, tar, caramel, cherry. Palate: oily, wood, roasted, leather, light rubber, tar, orange. Finish: long, warm, wood, light smoke, orange, light tar and rubber.

    Ganz schön alkoholisch, aber geschmacklich gut.

    Solider Vertreter des 1998er Caroni Jahrgangs. Der Alkohol ist etwas zu präsent; die Aromen vom HTR-Profil kommen durch, daneben dominiert eine satte Karamellsüsse. Angenehm zu trinken, aber im Direktvergleich der 1998er Caronis aus kontinentaler Reifung nicht in der Spitzenklasse.
