Excellent nose! Spicy, intense and dark. Very well integrated alcohol on the palate. A tad too dry for a top rating.

... Caroni je destilerie z Trinidadu, produkujici v dobe sve nejvetsi slavy rum, ktery se pridaval v pomeru 1:10 do namornickeho blendu. Byl totiz moc vyrazny a divny nez aby byl prijemny na jazyku. V roce 2000 destilerka skoncila s produkci a byla uzavrena. Az v roce 2010 se objevili degustatori, kteri si rum oblibili prave pro jeho specialni chut. A zajem rostl. Caroni patri do kategorie rumu "you need to try before you die". Doporucuji, Caroni je opravdu unikatni rum.

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.

` between two key/value pairs terminates the expression and Hugo fails the whole build with `unexpected "{" in operand`. Put notes here. `headerDeliveryCountry` feeds the aria-label of the destination picker under the express row (commerce/express-destination.js). The strip's visible text is rendered by Hugo itself in rx/price_block.html — nothing else needs seeding. */ -}}
