A Caroni with an original profile to say the least: apart from the initial hydrocarbons, one feels mostly fruits (apricot, orange peel and dried fruits), tobacco, grass, spices, honey, caramel and chocolate. Quite sweet and confusing for a Caroni. The attack on the palate starts with hydrocarbons before melting into spices, tobacco, vanilla and tropical fruits. A slightly smoky profile but still smooth. The finish is quite long, dipped in rubber, some tar, a hint of saltiness, earthy and fresh notes of grass and tobacco. A roasted and bitter feel comes through. A different profile from Caroni, well integrated but slightly lacking in depth to be top notch.

Première dégustation ! Un hydrocarbure mielleux et parfumé, très différents des veliers mais délicieux. Le côté caoutchouc se ressent légèrement sur l'attaque, se retrouve mélangé à des fruits secs, à ce miel qui lui donne un côté légèrement huileux très appréciable, et reviens plus marqué en finale.
