Nobilis Caroni No. 37 (10th Anniversary of Excellence Rhum) HTR 1998
"Dirty, nasty and super nice" is how one Dane sums it up, and that's the Caroni bargain in a nutshell. This 1998, 25 years old at cask strength, leans classic: rubber, tar, oily body, wood smoke, with dried fruit and a whisper of cherry and pineapple keeping it from going full industrial. Powerful alcohol, but tasters found it balanced rather than harsh.

- Long smoky finish
