“Das Fass 190 ist wohl der rundeste und gefälligste Caroni dieses S.B.S Sets. Am Anfang kurz Rauch/Teer, dann am meisten Frucht und Karamell an der Nase, dazu eher typische Agricole-Noten. Im Mund zwar trocken, würzig und kräftig, aber dennoch einigermaßen mild genug. Im Abgang leckere Früchte und Kakao. Guter Rum, aber Preis zu hoch und dem Caroni-Name geschuldet.”

“Ich mag das SBS Caroni Set sehr gerne. Unglaubliches PLV und eher un-süß und un-fruchtig. Die Rums sind nicht über-dreckig aber weil nicht so süß und fruchtig kommt die Werkstatt-Seite schön zur Geltung. Mag alle 4 sehr gerne.”
