Review by Jakob
Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Beautiful nose that promises a bit more vibrancy than then reveals itself in the mouth. Here the Caroni becomes bone dry, hardly any sweetness or fruitiness, instead concentrated medicinal power coupled with dirty Caroni notes. Also exciting, but as a lover of 1996 Guyana stock Caronis, this is not quite my preferred Caroni flavor world.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
29.01.2022 The big Caroni tasting with old rum buddies, good food, snacks and a lot of talking about old times. Notes Medium dark colour. Nose Intense, wood, tar, rubber, light mint, dried fruit, faint caramel. Palate Round, complex, wood, tar, rubber, lightly bitter, light mint, caramel, cherry. Finish Medium to long, wood, tar, light rubber, dried fruit, light caramel.
Review by Oliver
Very good, spicy intense nose. A tad too astringent on the palate.
