Collectors Series Dominican Republic No. 8
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is also a nice release. Once rested it releases nice flavours and I like the warm oily palate with light fruit and caramel. The finish is very long and warm and it draws really nice curtains in the glass."
Guyana EHP
Top review from TheRhumhoe:
"It's clear to see what's happened here: the quality of bottled rum leaves much to be desired, and with ever-higher prices. Typical Enmore spices (aniseed, licorice, pepper), toasted oak, raisins and a touch of flowers and honey can be detected, but the nose remains very reserved, not to say insipid. The rum doesn't fare much better on the palate: the relatively low degree makes for a light, not so aromatic rum with an impression of dilution (even if it wasn't, in theory at least). Spices, wood, caramel and dried fruit make up the entire aromatic and taste spectrum, and this with low intensity. The finish is very short, with the same aromas. No sooner swallowed than forgotten, this rum will not be remembered by its bottler or distillery, except for its irrational price tag, especially when El Dorado releases an Enmore of the same vintage, under tropical aging, for half the price and twice the flavor."
Jamaica HD OWH
Top review from TheRhumhoe:
"A fairly straightforward Hampden low ester, with tropical fruit, vanilla, a little wood and a pinch of medicinal touches on the esters on the nose. Pastry aromas add roundness to the nostrils. A relatively simple nose, but one that lacks the depth to make a real impression. The attack on the palate is initially lively, tense and biting on the esters, before softening on exotic fruits and the sweetness of marzipan. Citrus fruits add a touch of acidity. Regrettably, apart from the palate entry, the rum remains flat on the palate, without the slightest surprise. The alcohol could be better integrated. The finish is of decent length, with more floral and medicinal aromas. The funkiness comes out more, with the barrel adding tannins. A rum that clearly needs aeration to express itself, but whose finish alone cannot create ecstasy."
Demerara Single Cask Rum
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"#4633 02.03.2024 Whiskymessen Nose Intense, wood, light smoke, light mint, floral, dried fruit, light caramel, faint glue. Palate Intense, oily, wood, dry, light roasted, faint smoke, dried fruit, faint glue, light anise, faibt caramel. Finish Long and dry, wood, raisin, light caramel, light salty. A very dry release ☺️"
Tortuga No. 2 (East Asia Whisky)
Top review from Oliver:
"Quite an atypical nose for a Caroni. Lots of vanilla, bourbon and nuts are added to the (rather more subtle) Caroni notes. Very accessible on the palate. A little lacking in depth for a top rating. Very well integrated alcohol."
Greenheart Versailles
Top review from cigares :
"A beautiful nose, the kind that makes you want to dive into the liquid. Old varnished wood, leather and dried fruit. The palate is full-bodied, very woody, with pencil lead and prune. But there's freshness too, with a nice menthol note. The finish is long, balanced, woody but also fresh. Lots of wood here, but wonderfully counterbalanced by the freshness of the menthol. A great show."
Wild Series Rum No. 30
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"29.10.2022 whisky & Rum Festival, nice event with a few friends and a few of our own bottles. A very nice TDL indeed. Lightly to medium fruity with roasted wood without it being dominant. Has a nice minty note and caramel in the profile. Long finish with some dried fruit."
Bottled for Caksus (Bird by Noir)
Top review from Jakob:
"Quite solid continental Caroni, fortunately bottled at high alcohol strength. Typical Caroni profile, compared to the tropical representatives, this bottling lacks a little balance, because the heavy wood sweetness is hardly found. Who likes Caroni, is well supplied here, but to the absolute top class is definitely missing some points."
Old Music! Series Rapso Edition
Top review from Aussierumfan:
"A lovely 1997 continentally aged Caroni. As always Tar, rubber and oils but then Im getting a pleasant sweetness coming through as well! Fruits, coffee/chocolate as well as some wood. The oak isn't overpowering at all. Very enjoyable with a longish finish."
Trinidad No. 2
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This one was a bit disappointing and I had expected more from a Caroni this age. The Caroni notes are there but very weak. The ABV on the other hand is there and very dominant. It didn't settle down until 45+ minutes and then it still wasn't all there yet. I do like the smoky touch."
Wildlife Series No. 2
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"26.01.2013 Had a nice meet up with other nerds at this old hotel. Afterwards some played at the Casino. Notes Medium dark colour. Nose Wood, light roasted, light caramel, faint leather, banana, faint tar. Palate Intense, wood, light smoke, orange, banana, overripe, light caramel, earthy, light tar. Finish Medium to long, wood, light smoke, dried fruit, light caramel."
Limited Batch Series Nicaragua
Top review from Djehey:
"Not necessarily very complex but very pleasant. The alcohol is well integrated and makes the whole intense without being heady. Aromas rather on the freshness and the sweetness, with a small lime that enhances the whole. The end of mouth is not very long but presents wood and vanilla in softness."
Old Music! Series Chutney Edition
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"15.05.2020 Went out for a nice dinner bringing some bottles. Notes Dark to very dark in colour. Nose Wood, roasted, light caramel, tar, faint rubber, fruits, citrus. Palate Oily, wood, roasted, raisin, citrus, tar, rubber, faint coffee, chocolate, faint licorice. Finish Long and warm, wood, light tar, rubber, fruits, light anise."
Old Music! Series Burrokeet Edition
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Wow, this Caroni hits you smack in the face. When you open and pour there's no doubt this is a Caroni. The nose is intense with Caroni flavours, rubber, tar and petrol, wow. Wood, fruit and chocolate then pops out and a light hint of leather to finish off. The palate is picking up where the nose left off. Toasted oak, tar and rubber is there right off the bat followed by fruit and licorice a d i sence a minty/menthol note in there as well. The finish is very long, as in very long, dry and spicy with some tobacco and light fruits. A very good Caroni."
Floral Rum Series Caroni Chaconia (Catawiki)
Top review from Zucker und Zeste:
"A very good Caroni that I liked especially for its perfect balance and excellent aging. Both the nose and the taste is at a very high level. Especially by its ethereal florality, it stands out a little from other Caronis I have tasted so far. No idea in which fragrance profile the Chaconia is located, but flowers are definitely a small part of the aroma spectrum."
Collectors Series Barbados
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"#4529 16.12.2023 Here you get what you pay for or maybe even a bit less. The roasted note is pretty strong even after resting for a good while. Medium fruity with some chocolate and the the roasted wood notes. The palate is lightly dry with and slightly out of balance/rough edges. The finish is medium long and has some dried fruit to it. The empty glass has a light orange note."
Demerara Rum Wildlife Series No. 1
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"15.06.2012 Lanternen, Kolding Celebrating a friend's birthday in this bygone bar. Notes Light to medium dark in colour. Nose Light, round, wood, light smoke, plum, dried fruit, herbs, light nutts. Palate Light, wood, roasted, licorice, dried fruit, light bitterness, faint leather. Finish Medium long, wood, roasted, raisin, plum, light licorice."
Lion’s Whisky (10th Anniversary Edition) Heavy Trinidad Rum
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Very tasty but also tame caroni. Has something of Haribo cola bottles with smoked sandalwood, some tropical fruits and gasoline. Overall, however, very light and elegant"
Caroni Distillery Heavy Trinidad Rum
Top review from DomM:
"Nose is more dirt forwards with some sour/vinegar note to it. On the palate: points for some classic Caroni notes. Unfortunately this is all a bit one dimensional and lacks complexity. Not a bad bottling, but definitely not the pinnacle of 98 Caronis tbh."
Tortuga No. 3 (East Asia Whisky)
Top review from Zucker und Zeste:
"Der Tortuga gefällt mir extrem gut, weil er für mich die typischen Caroninoten aus diesem Jahrgang herauskitzelt und dieses Finish perfekt für diese Rum zu passen scheint. Ich finde ihn komplex und kräftig. Er ist natürlich kein „all Day Sipper“, sondern ein Rum auf den man an dem Tag auch Lust haben muss. Eine absolut geniale Erfahrung! Und Zeit sollte man mitbringen, denn es gibt viel zu entdecken."
Precious Moments
Top review from Jakob:
"The 1999 Caroni vintage is quite convincing: caramel sweetness meets dirty tar and gum notes, wood, spices and dark chocolate and coffee. In addition, crisp roasted aromas - the Scotchman is just ahead for me, because the profile is still a bit rounder overall, but 1999 lands for me among the continental Caronis increasingly clear before releases from 1997 and 1998."
Small Batch Rare Rums
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Why do you have to put a '98 caroni in a whisky barrel for 70 months? Everything that could have been great here was ruined. Wasted potential. 250€ for a 98 caroni is still too much as the finish devalues it enormously... You can drink it, but here rum nation has once again "improved" what is certainly a great rum... Too bad!"

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"#4291 07.10.2023 this was a 7 hour long event with 3 friends and it was a nice day. This one was nice and the flavours came as soon as it was poured. Nice and fruity profile with natural sweetness the palate is spicy with fruits and vanilla. The finish is long and warm. I really like the minty touch in the profile. The empty glass had eucalyptus and light caramel."

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a very well rounded release from Foursquare and the ABV is perfectly integrated. Fruity with wood, vanilla and chocolate notes. The coconut is not dominating but light and completes the profile."
