“RumX Advent Calendar, 18.12., blind.First impression: clearly Caroni! Dirty fruity, not too complicated, >60%. Good.Nose: as said, pleasantly dirty fruity, strong and complex. Sweet tar and burnt rubber. Red currant and a very slight hint of mint. Back polish and cold smoke.Palate: powerful and complex on the palate as well. Dry and woody and salty-bitter at the start. Then gum rub and polish, maybe some dried cherry and grapefruit. Very drinkable and beautiful Caroni representative.”

“This is an OK Caroni, but it's like something is missing and I can't put my finger in it. The price on release I'd say was pretty good. The nose is typical Caroni with tar and rubber followed by smoky wood, fruit, leather and light vanilla. The palate is intanese and spicy and also starts with tar and rubber trailed by smoky wood and dried fruit and light vanilla. The finish is long with smoky wood, tar, rubber and spices.”
