Liquid Treasures Caroni Rum Session No. 10 1998

Caroni hunters chasing the 1998 vintage will find this one on the fruitier, herbal side of the range. Intense mint and menthol, acacia honey, overripe mango and bitter orange, with the smoky-dirty edge kept in check rather than dominant. At 60.7% the alcohol reads well integrated, and the long finish gives you time to dig through the layers. Complex without going full industrial.

The community says
  • Mint & menthol

//update: still great, but more emphasis on the doughy/buttery nose this time. A bit less fruity especially in direct comparison with other 98s Great Caroni with a less industrial style, more fruity/herbal. Still great complexity and well integrated alcohol, many flavors to explore. The looong finish gives enough time to explore and find notes. Really like it!

Avg Rating 8.8/10 over 620 Rums

No closed distillery is chased harder than Caroni. The Trinidad distillery shut down around 2002 and not a drop has been made since, but its heavy, oily, almost diesel-like rum became a collector obsession, carried to the world by Velier. Every bottle now comes from a finite, shrinking stock, which is exactly why the prices keep climbing.
