“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.”

“#4445 03.11.2023 got some nice samples from a friend and though small they're still really good. Well rounded with very nice Caroni notes. Light fruit with some chocolate and nuts. The finish is long and warm with an earthy touch.”
