A light, delicate Caroni... a little too light, in fact.
Auto-translatedLeider stark verwässert
Tasted at the Catawiki stand at the Village in Nuremberg. For the price at the stand, something you can try, but unfortunately really only a sniff of the potential of the 1996 vintage. A lot of what you would expect from a rum, but - given the dilution - of course not what you would expect from a Caroni. But still a good rum.
Auto-translatedUn sample pris au German Rum Festival 2024. Un beau nez, ample avec des fruits tropicaux, du boisé léger et des notes gourmandes pâtissières. L’atelier mécanique est en arrière-plan. La bouche est acqueuse, diluée avec presque pas de saveurs. Je peine à repérer les marqueurs Caroni. La finale est courte avec de légères notes de pâtisseries. Pas du tout un mauvais rhum, plutôt facile à boire. Mais en aucune façon à la hauteur de ce que’on peut attendre d’un Caroni 1996.
