Le nez est plutôt orienté vers la Guyane, en plus alcoolisé. En bouche, ce sont d'abord les herbes qui dominent et qui s'associent rapidement à une nette note de caramel (sans doute provenant du fût). Les notes de goudron tant appréciées n'apparaissent malheureusement qu'en fin de bouche, où elles restent discrètes mais longues. De mon point de vue, le rhum aurait dû être mis en bouteille plus tôt.
Notes from the cask with some sweet vanilla and lots of wood on the nose. There is some Caroni dirt but also a note of rotten vegetables, which is rather unique. On the palate it can’t quite compete with the top of the 97 vintage. Lots of wood, vanilla and spices are dominating. While those are good ingredients, the profile feels a bit too alcoholic and lacks complexity for a higher rating. Still overall enjoyable, just not quite top notch.
On to the second Caroni of the day. On the nose: It has some familiar notes like tar, but quite woody and alcoholic. Spices. Vanilla. Taste: Quite tar and alcoholic upfront. Then the rum opens up to a creamy mouthfeel with darker flavours like cocoa, coffee notes. Finish: Quite dry finish. Woody, roasted and leather notes. From my experience this rum doesn't offer the typical notes associated with Caroni rums. It should be more complex,more balanced and finish could be better to receive better score, but i liked it and its not a bad rum at all
