“Quite the deception, especially at nearly 600€ for 50cl. Rather flat and a bit weak, fruity with a little spice. If you are looking for classic Caroni markers you will not find them here…”

“Beautiful representative of the 1998 vintage. Round with relatively few dirt associations. Great sweetness and balance. Fun to drink!”

“Very horny 98 caroni. Extremely Smooth for 61.9% . A little too soft and sweet for my taste, but does not completely blow me away now.”
