“Les caroni trop huile de garage ou pneu de vél ou jus de vieux bois mouillé, c'est pas mon truc, donc souvent, j'aime bien mais sans plus. Mais alors celui ci me montre que ça peut être vraiment classe! Vieux bois à la cire d'abeille avec une belle fraîcheur en prime. Très élégant, très agréable, très bon. J'ai pas gouté 50 caroni, mais celui la c'est le meilleur que j'ai eu. Content de le partager pour le faire découvrir, mais si j'avais la chance d'en ravoir une, je la prends de suite!”

“Erster Eindruck an der Nase: ziemlich deutliche Whisky-Noten. Leider konnte ich nicht herausfinden, was es sich mit dem BB4 cask auf sich hat. Später kommen gelbe Früchte / Mirabelle, weißer Pfirsich und Plastik/Wachs-Noten. Am Gaumen zwar Werkstatt-Noten, aber nicht zu dominant. Dazu röstige und nussige Noten, und Fass. Der hohe ABV ist auch als spritige Note deutlich wahrnehmbar. Ein eher untypisches Caroni-Profil. Den hätte ich blind vermutlich nicht als Caroni ausgemacht. Ich bevorzuge dann aber doch eher das ‚klassische‘ Caroni-Profil.”

“The nose starts relatively light with vanilla, bourbon and cereal. Of the caronino notes I find only very remotely a little tar. The alcohol I slightly superficial. On the palate harmonious to the nose, sweet and with associations to Highland Whisky. The alcohol is also clearly noticeable here. In the aftertaste, the rum is then softer and here flashes tar, bicycle tube and "dirt" again strongly. The rum ends with barrel notes. I like the sweetness and the finish. Otherwise, this is probably more of a LTR.”
