How does this rum taste?
Kill Devil (The Whisky Barrel) HTR Rum, distilled at Trinidad's Caroni distillery, offers a distinctive profile with robust tar and smoky notes, underpinned by wood, rubber, and a hint of bitter orange. Aged for 23 years, this 62.1% ABV rum reveals nuanced flavors of vanilla and tobacco. RumX users appreciate its smoky, complex character, though some note a lack of traditional Caroni 'dirty' notes. Limited to 247 bottles, it attracts attention for its unique continental style and balanced finish. A diverse palate experience makes it a point of discussion among connoisseurs seeking matured, high-proof rums.

Smoky Caroni. I like!
11.06.2021 A nice evening with some friends at the beach bringing some nice rums. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Light wood, faint smoke, spice, faint rubber, workshop, cherry. Palate Balanced, light wood, faint tar, light rubber, faint smoke, raisin, light cherry, spice, faint coffee. Finish Medium to long, light wood, faint smoke, rubber, medium dry, light coffee, faint cherry.
Round, continental Caroni that doesn't offend anywhere. The dirty notes are missing. However, some smoke does come through, which is unusual. However, it is fun and was affordable at the release price.
A somewhat unusual Caroni. Lots of alcohol at the beginning, which is not so well integrated, then light wood notes, smoke, few typical Caroni notes, some vanilla. The finish is surprisingly short.
