Good dirty and stays long in the palate and finish plus it changes along the way. The nose promises a more rounded experience than it is then in the mouth. Reminds me a bit of the 100th Anniversary with more fruit. Top.

Not your typical Caroni, but it does have the typical Caroni notes though they are dialed down. The nose is kind of mild with wood, tar, light rubber and varnish trailed by spice, leather and light raisin. The palate is woody with tar, light rubber and tannins trailed by spice, leather and mango and the empty glass has chocolate and caramel after a while. The finish is medium long with wood, spices and dried fruit.

Nose is not very distinctive, much less appearent than the Replica and Bristol 97 which I had before, some glue but not much. Nice on palate, less citrusy, more chocolate and woody, nicely spicy, some minerality. Aromatic tobacco pipe finish.

Sehr, sehr ähnlich zum Bristol 97er 20y/o. oder die anderen aus der Reihe. Sehr angenehm zu trinken durch die 55%. Sehr langer Abgang.

Nez légèrement Caroni (pour le peu que j'en connais). Bois. Groudon. Toffee. Bouche à l'avenant. Une amertume type thé noir. Finale longue, boisée. Une sensation fraîche et mentholée.

Very well balanced and complex rum. Almost to elegant for a HTR Caroni 😅
