Review by Jakob
Ein sehr rares Release mit nur 24 Flaschen. Im Direktvergleich mit anderen 1998er Caronis aus kontinentaler Lagerung im Mittelfeld anzusiedeln, die HTR-Noten sind vorhanden, werden von Gewürzen, Holz und etwas Restsüsse flankiert und bieten ein insgesamt typisches Aromenspektrum an. Dem Rum fehlt das Alleinstellungsmerkmal, aber er bewegt sich auf sehr gutem Niveau.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I have had a short break from tasting because I felt like 2-3 days a week with tasting was a bit over the top. Back in shape again and we had a wonderful evening yesterday. A true Caroni with the Valinch & Mallet touch. I can only recommend it.
Review by Johannes
Viel Eichenfasseinfluss, wenig Caroni.
