Dirt, vanilla and mint on the nose. Sweetness and vanilla on the plate. Only moderated hints of dirt. Not bad overall, but rather disappointing if in share for a Caroni profile imho.

Caroni 

Avg Rating 8.8/10 over 610 Rums

No closed distillery is chased harder than Caroni. The Trinidad distillery shut down around 2002 and not a drop has been made since, but its heavy, oily, almost diesel-like rum became a collector obsession, carried to the world by Velier. Every bottle now comes from a finite, shrinking stock, which is exactly why the prices keep climbing.
