How does this rum taste?

“Nice mix of caroni dirt and dried fruit in the nose, pleases with very well. The palate is then dominated by the caroni dirt and is accompanied by a pleasant sweetness and spiciness.finish shows as a continuation of the palate without the sweetness.Without being an expert, I would say: a typical Caroni.”

“Got this sample for free from RumX. It’s a single cask bottling from the legendary Caroni distillery that closed down in 2003. It’s a column still rum distilled in 1998 whereafter it’s tropical aged for 11 years in an ex-bourbon barrel and then continentally aged for an additional 12 years in an ex-whisky barrel before bottled in 2022 in just 250 bottles with a cask strength of 62,9%. Overall a very intense, complex and round rum.”
