“Epic Velier Caroni Tasting 2023: Runder 98er Caroni mit angenehmer Süsse und dank der etwas geringeren Alkoholstärke fast schon ein easy sipping Rum - soweit man davon bei Caroni sprechen kann. Im Direktvergleich mit den übrigen Velier Caroni-Releases im unteren Mittelfeld unterwegs, was aber ohne Mühen immer noch zu einer sehr guten Einstufung genügt - und einmal mehr die beinahe einzigartige Qualität dieser Rums hervorhebt.”

“Excellent, very drinkable Caroni. A little more focus on dried fruit, which I personally like very much. Enough burning tires. Anyone else have a bottle?”
