"Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: A striking fruitiness awaits us on the nose, which increasingly combines with Caroni-typical notes of rubber, tar and some caramel. On the palate, the aforementioned aromas are paired with a rich menthol note, the high alcohol content also comes into play and a little oxidation is recommended. Overall at a very high Caroni level, which promises exquisite quality (the tropically aged bottlings are in a league of their own). From the 2000 vintage, which is also very convincing in terms of quality, this is one of the weaker bottlings in relative terms, which is due to the alcohol not being fully integrated. Nevertheless, anyone who finds their way to Caroni with such bottlings is on an enviably high-quality path."

"On the nose, freshness and menthol. Nice dirty caroni notes, nougat and then very fruity, mango and passion fruit. The long time in the barrel shows mainly through various spices.In the mouth a lot of nougat and wood. The finish is surprisingly short.Despite the pronounced Caroni notes and the 64% rather tame. Nougat, lots of menthol and lots of fruit."

"Zusammen spontan mit Jarek beim Sampletausch zwei wahllos ausgesuchte Caronis auf der Terasse probiert. Im Duell waren der RX6598 und der RX7335. Ohne Frage alles zwei Topp-Abfüllungen. Mir hat aber die 2000er Abfüllung ein wenig besser gefallen als die 1996er, da dieser fruchtiger und frischer gewirkt hat ohne an den "dreckigen" Caroni zu sparen."

"tropischer 2000er Caroni mit viel schönen Karamellnoten. Praline, Nougat, Vanille, Karamellbonbons mit Tabak, Leder und Cola in Harmonie mit Gummi und (vorerst) viel Menthol mit etwas gestoßenem schwarzen Pfeffer. Nach einer Weile kommen tropische Früchte und das Menthol wird weniger und der Rum insgesamt komplexer."
