Review by Beancheese
Tasted at the incredible Rum Bar Room in Tokyo (September 2024). Chose to end my night with 3 Caroni rums, side by side. The nose had rubber, petrol, chocolate, a sweetness best described as nougat, tar - not an in your face Caroni on the nose but still had the notes one would expect. On the palate the petrol, rubber, dark chocolate return along with oak giving a more bitter quality. There is a greener, vegetal note in here as well. Least favourite of the Caroni rums sampled on this night but still great.

A great rum from Rattray which was bottled for Shinanoya. No doubt a Caroni.
