    Un échantillon récupéré au festival du rhum de Lucerne. Une bouche très gourmande, cornet à la vanille, des fruits tropicaux sur-mûrs. L’atelier mécanique est plutôt discret mais participe à la belle complexité d’un nez très homogène. La bouche, au contraire, attaque sur des notes de goudron et de caoutchouc et les fruits n’arrivent qu’ensuite, puis les arômes pâtissiers. La finale est longue et savoureuse. Un Caroni (peut-être de 1997) tout en équilibre avec une belle complexité mais qui reste toujours homogène. Une très belle surprise.

    Comme tous les produits au-delà de 50%, attention au nez... Ça toaste les poils... Laisser aérer 1 ou 2 minutes votre verre... Votre nez vous sera reconnaissant 😉. Qu'elle complexité au nez... Cuir, boisé, grillé et tout en rondeur... Qu'elle promesse pour la bouche... En bouche, on retrouve les marqueurs du Carroni : Goudron, caoutchouc, épicé, boisé, une complexité folle, mais moins prononcés que les produits Vellier. Une fin moyenne longue fruits tropicaux avec son fumé légendaire... N'hésitez pas passer un moment sur votre verre après dégustation un florilège d'arômes vous attendent... Bref UN Carroni.

    Un Caroni pas dans l’exubérance mais plutôt assez fin
