“#4090 This is a very nice Caroni and a smoky one indeed. In the glas it's a bit cloudy but nothing that matters. All the expected Caroni notes are there once rested, rubber, tar and smoky wood. There is a light orange note in the profile and I like that. Well balanced and good ABV integration. Draws really nice and slow curtains and the empty glass has even more smoke and fruit flavours.”

“Alcohol not optimally integrated, somewhat unround, lacks some complexity and intensity.”

“Ich finde die typischen Caroni Noten nicht so präsent wie es die anderen Tastings vermuten lassen. Ein guter Caroni aber sofern ich das mit meiner Erfahrung in diesem Bereich bewerten kann, nicht auf Spitzenniveau”
