This particular bottling has a very aromatic profile with hints of tobacco, wood and caramel. A unique bottling from the 1996 vintage, distilled and matured in Trinidad. Bottled in 2017 at cask strength by independent bottler Velier, capturing the special character of the renowned lost distillery. The Caroni Distillery produced intense yet very complex rums.
The Caroni Distillery was founded in 1923 on the site of an old sugarcane plantation, in 2002 it closed its doors and it no longer exists. Today it is a lost distillery known for their heavy, full-flavoured rums.
