Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023 / Golden Circle Caroni Paradise Tasting 2024: Very round, a nice blend with somewhat more pronounced citrus aromas than other 96-proof examples. Its mix of heavy caramel sweetness, tropical fruits, and mint reminds me of the final Employee releases – but flavor-wise, it's even a touch rounder, more balanced, and more delicate. Top level, pure enjoyment.

Absolutely exceptional Caroni of the 1996 vintage. My winner in the blind tasting.

Whisky live Paris 2026: A pretty dirty Caroni 1996, where fruits and vanilla are a bit covered by dirty notes that usually are less intense in this vintage, and more common in 1998/2000. Still a nice dram for sure
