    Un rhum apprécié dans un restaurant, la bouteille est à peine entamée. Un beau nez avec de l’atelier mécanique, des fruits tropicaux et comme un côté yaourt. La bouche est un peu heurtée, elle manque d’équilibre avec un piquant un peu désagréable, dommage ! La finale est un peu courte mais le verre vide redonne vie à ce Caroni un peu déçevant.

    Aroma: fresh dense smell of paint, dried fruits, tropical fruits in the background, interesting citrus-oily-paint aroma. I stood for a while and the aroma is very fruity, mango, ripe apple with oily tobacco tones in the background. Taste: dry, very light, tart nutty-woody taste, which turns into a long dry aftertaste, with very neat and light paint notes. Аромат: свежий плотный запах краски, сухофрукты, тропические фрукты на заднем плане, интересный цитрусово-маслянисто-лакокрасочный аромат. Немного постоял и аромат очень фруктовый, манговый, спелое яблоко с маслянистыми табачными тонами на втором плане. Вкус: сухой, очень лёгкий, терпкий орехово-древесный вкус, котрый переходит в долгое сухое послевкусие, с очень аккуратными и лёгкими лакокрасочными нотами.
