“Ein leichter und doch intensiver Caroni mit genau den typischen Aromen, die ich am Caroni so mag… Das niedrige Alkoholvolumen steht im gut; so lässt er sich relativ entspannt genießen, ohne Einbußen am Geschmackserlebnis hinnehmen zu müssen. Erstklassig”

“Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Close to Full Proof, hardly less exquisite. Typical 1994 Caroni with lots of aromatic punch full of wood, spice, tar, rubber and subtle fruit - great complexity and inspiring quality.”

“Des marqueurs d’atelier mécanique avec un côté givré, du jus de pomme, de l’ananas et des fruits tropicaux. La bouche est légèrement acqueuse au début, puis tout s’ouvre : atelier mécanique, jus de pomme, fruits tropicaux. La finale est longue mais plus courte qu’attendue avec une amertume noble qui donne envie d’en reprendre. Le plus faible des Caroni “hangar”, moins d’aromatique et un début de bouche un peu acqueux. Ça reste malgré tout un fantastique rhum !”
