8.3/10

Could not quite keep up with the 1997 "standard set" from S.B.S (#53, #190, #193, #216) tasted at the same time, this Caroni lacked the necessary punch. But a quite drinkable, smooth representative of its kind, ideally suited as an entry into the Caroni workshop.

Tasty but a little too sweet and few percent more would be good.

8.1/10

Light and above all sweet Caroni. Here, the dirty notes are less prominent. Spicy, woody notes, dried fruits, paired with light herbal tones and subtle tarry, chocolatey nuances round off its light profile.
