Review by alex
It's very good, with the usual distillery markers, but at 46* it's too reduced for my taste.
Review by Jakob
Sehr schöner Trinkstärke-Caroni. Zugänglich, auch wenn die dreckigen Noten präsent sind - tolle Mischung aus Süsse und herb-würzigen Noten. Gefällt mir gut. Gute Zeiten waren das, als es derartige Abfüllungen zu erschwinglichen Preisen gab.
Review by Mike H.
Decent nose but rather flat in the mouth. A good example of how a reduction can render a rum light and flat.
Review by Johannes
Very round, few Caroni notes.
Review by Morgan Garet
The nose is superb, combining greediness and fruit like caramelized and flambéed bananas, coconut and, in the very light background, a few notes of solvents (tar?) Just right. The palate is well below the nose, though still pleasant, but the reduction takes over. Hints of caramel, spice and wood are present, but very timid. Short finish on spices and wood. A good rum, but far behind the Caroni I've tasted before.
