“Round, continental Caroni that doesn't offend anywhere. The dirty notes are missing. However, some smoke does come through, which is unusual. However, it is fun and was affordable at the release price.”

“A somewhat unusual Caroni. Lots of alcohol at the beginning, which is not so well integrated, then light wood notes, smoke, few typical Caroni notes, some vanilla. The finish is surprisingly short.”
