Review by Tschusikowsky
Caroni without a doubt and not a bad one. But overall there is a lack of harmony that unites the flavors.
Review by Djehey
The caroni markers are not very present. The rum needs to be allowed to breathe for these aromas to express themselves more fully. Barrel aromas dominate, with the presence of fruit, but more from the orchard. The texture lacks a little thickness. For me, a good rum, but one that some will surely consider too "light" for a caroni.
