Rather soft and well balanced on the nose. Somewhat gives me Cognac vibes 🤔 Definitly one of the non dirty 98 expressions. Very enjoyable on the palate. Sweetness, fruits, menthol and a very light touch of dirt towards the end. In Caroni terms this is definitly an easy sipper, but very nice nonetheless. Reminds of high quality Demerara Columns. Nice one - if the softer 98 profile is for you.

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.
