Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very tasty but also tame caroni. Has something of Haribo cola bottles with smoked sandalwood, some tropical fruits and gasoline. Overall, however, very light and elegant
Review by ilRummista
A powerful, strong and even dirty Caroni but with an elegant side tempered by hints of honey, vanilla and orange peel. An excellent drink, pleasant, complex, powerful and yet elegant! It is also worth buying the bottle
