Nobilis Montebello Guadeloupe (Caroni Finish) 2021
Here's the twist: it's sold on the Caroni cask, but nearly every taster agrees you can't find the Caroni at all. What you get is a fierce 82.3% Guadeloupe agricole — sugarcane, pear, mango, pepper and green herbal notes, with citrus and mint on a long, burning finish. One French reviewer called it "une expérience, mais pas un coup de coeur." Powerful and raw.
The community says- Fresh sugarcane
- Long herbal finish
- But: Caroni not noticeable

How does Nobilis Montebello Guadeloupe (Caroni Finish) 2021 taste?
Aggregated from 26 community reviews.
Fierce agricole where the Caroni disappears Well-made high-proof agricole, but the promised Caroni finish goes missing for almost everyone. Very hot and a bit unbalanced — an experience more than a favorite.

Review by Michael Schou
01-02-2025 Nobilis Warehouse Tasting #2 - Rum 4 The weakest rum of the evening. Still haven’t tasted a Montebello that i enjoy. Can’t taste the Caroni cask. To young and to high ABV
Review by kondgab
Great release from Nobilis: a Guadeloupean agricole aged in ex-Caroni casks. Despite the high ABV, the alcohol is well integrated. Nose shows tropical fruit, wood, and freshness; palate is minty, herbal, woody.
Review by Fasen
Beautiful, slightly aged brut de colonnes, but the caroni is nowhere to be seen.
Review by Renato
Rich, fruity nose. Smokiness joins fruit and spice on the palate. The alcohol is well integrated. The finish is long and well-balanced. The freshness of the cane is present throughout.
Review by Jean Louisss
Very good brut de colonne Guadeloupe from Montebello. That said, the real drawback of this rum is that the caroni cask is totally unnoticed... A real shame.
