“Sehr schöner kontinentaler Caroni. Dennoch kein Vergelich zu jeglichen tropischen Veliers. Hiermit kann man auch Rum- und Caroni-Beginner begeistern, da er zwar mit typisch drecking Noten aufwartet, diese jedoch dezent integriert sind.”

“Very pleasant, relaxed Caroni. I could drink it every evening. It was worth it that I was able to buy a bottle on the first market this year at a reasonable price. Update 2023-11-29: Tasted again, this time against RX17793. The Ultimatum is much stronger and dirtier and I like it better. The 89 points awarded at the time still stand.”

“Relatively fruity on the nose but with chocolaty Caroni notes. Much dirtier in the mouth, rubber, slightly cinnamon, tobacco, leather and milk chocolate. The finish is oily and complex if you let it breathe for a long time. Good round 98 Caroni. Very accessible but still present in the profile.”
