A little Caroni tasting. I wish I hadn't started it. Why do they all taste so good? :D Great stuff. Not so pronounced workshop notes. Rather a little fruitier, sweeter and nicely drinkable. I like it very much. Many thanks Jakob.
This was a huge surprise, not your typical Caroni at all. Milder and rounder than you'd expect and not dirty at all. The nose is fruity and herbal with menthol, chocolate and some roasted notes. The palate is light, round and kind of sweet with cherry rubber, menthol, chocolate and a lighter herbal note than the nose. The finish is medium long and mild with cherries as well as light rubber and wood.
Solid 98 Caroni. Not dirty but nice complexity! Long finish, I like it :-)
A Caroni to enjoy, not quite so dirty... Edit: briefly corrected upwards again, after some time in the open sample it has become even rounder
