Size:�500ML Proof: 123.2 (61.6%ABV) Origin: Trinidad Distillery: Caroni An absolute cracker of a rum from Trinidad's Caroni distillery! This traditional column still expression was distilled in 1997 and rested for 22 years, with a total of 284 bottles disgorged in 2020. Nose:�Grilled pineapple, doused with chimichurri dressing. Fresh leather and robust, estery oak. Vanilla rests in the depths, with a tropical touch of guava joining the ranks. Palate:�Super soft initially, before that leathery, dense oak packs a punch. Rich, earthen notes of brewed tea, treacle toffee, plus crumbly rum and raisin fudge. Finish:�Enjoyably spicy. Warm notes of baking spice, cloves, and cinnamon punctuate hearty helpings of stewed fruit, burnt sugar, drying oak, and oily tobacco. Established in 1923 on the site of the old Caroni sugar factory with both column and pot stills, Caroni produced rums notable for a distinctive heavy profile which was supplied to the British Navy. Despite protests, in 2001 it was sold by the Trinidad government to Angostura, and it was then closed in 2002. But wait, that was not the end of Caroni distillery! The winds of fate changed when, while visiting Trinidad in 2004, Luca Gargano learnt of a warehouse full of barrels of rums in the derelict distillery. The barrels were purchased, bottled and sold and are now frantically sought out by collectors - a phenomenon termed �Caronimania�.
