"Dirty, nasty and super nice" is how one Dane sums it up, and that's the Caroni bargain in a nutshell. This 1998, 25 years old at cask strength, leans classic: rubber, tar, oily body, wood smoke, with dried fruit and a whisper of cherry and pineapple keeping it from going full industrial. Powerful alcohol, but tasters found it balanced rather than harsh.

Review by Jakob
Good 1998 Caroni, typical aromas of tar, rubber, pleasant oak, caramel and vanilla sweetness, plus spices, roasted barrel influences and subtle hints of fruit. Alcohol is powerful, but overall an archetypal continental Caroni.
Review by Pavel Spacek
... Caroni is a distillery from Trinidad, producing rum at the height of its fame, which was added in a ratio of 1:10 to naval blends. It was too strong and strange to be pleasant on the tongue. In 2000 the distillery ended production and was closed. Only in 2010 did tasters appear who liked the rum precisely for its special taste. And interest grew. Caroni belongs to the category of rums "you need to try before you die." I recommend it, Caroni is really a unique rum.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
