Nos: Dehtové dřevo, kůže, guma, coca-cola?
Chuť: V chuti to samé + trocha ovoce, vanilky
Dochuť: velmi dlouhá, kůže, dehet.
Vše to působí výrazným a harmonickým tónem. Špinavý a k tomu elegantní.

Nicht schlecht,aber mit seinen 50% kann er mit den anderen Caroni nicht mithalten. Dieses kann aber auch an seinem jungen Alter liegen

Not a rhum for anyone. I had my bottle in the cabinet for 6 months, just sipping one drop form time to time. Not my usual agricole. At all.
Strong and direct.
You need to get used with the tar, naphta, rubble and licorice aromas. If you can do that, you'll find a little treasure. These nose notes aren't predominant... nevertheless they are present and give this rum personality.
Give it more than a chance.

It is no secret, that I have a huge weak spot for Caroni. Since I had already tried the 15 and 17 in this series, it was almost certain that at some point, I had to give the 12 a chance.
Nose: Brown sugar, baked apples, nutmeg, rubber and leather
Taste: Light brown sugar, smoky wood, black liquorice and a full and almost savoury aftertaste that lingers for ages.
Overall: Although it is not on the absolute top-level like its big brothers, it is still a rum that deserves its place amongst the better rums. If you should get the chance to taste this, or even buy a bottle, then you should do yourself the favour of doing so. You will not regret it.
Interesting but difficult for many rum lovers, as You can read in many comments. Tar and wood (but not smooth bourbon cask type) in nose. I would even say, You can smell a bit of hardware store :) Oily structure makes all the flavours very intensive.

Meine zweite Caroni Verkostung, ich bin gespannt, ist leider nur ein Musterfläschchen, hatte bisher "nur" den 1974 Bristol Caroni im Glas.
Schön leuchtendes Bernstein im Glas. Genau so wie ein Rum ohne Farbstoffe aussehen muss.
In der Nase schwere Holztöne wie eine alte Kommode aus den Zwanzigern, etwas erdiges fast animalisches, sehr speziell, sehr komplex. Ich freue mich jetzt auf den ersten Schluck.
Im Gaumen sehr ehrlich und hart, wieder diese erdigen Noten, gewachstes Holz, verbranntes Tannenholz, Harze, reiner Kakau und 1000 Aromen mehr, einfach nur wow ! Unmöglich alle Nuancen aus diesem Muster herauszufinden. Ich will mehr !
Im Abgang einfach nur himmlisch, ein wenig rauchig, doch etwas fruchtig mit einer dezenten Süsse.
Ich muss noch ein paar Flaschen einbunkern, eine solche Konzentration an Aromen ist fast nicht zu übertreffen. Leider wurde die Destillerie aufgegeben.
Ein Rum für besondere Tage mit Zeit und Musse. Nicht unbedingt für Einsteiger.
My second Caroni tasting, I'm curiously, it's only a sample bottle, had so far "only" the 1974 Bristol Caroni in the glass.
Beautiful brilliant amber in the glass. Just like a rum without dyes must look.
In the nose heavy wood tones like an old chest of drawers from the twenties, something earthy almost animal, very special, very complex. I'm looking forward to the first sip.
In the palate very honest and hard, again these earthy notes, waxed wood, burnt fir, resins, pure cocoa and 1000 flavors more, just wow! Impossible to figure out all the nuances from this pattern. I want more !
In the finish is simply heavenly, a little smoky, but somewhat fruity with a subtle sweetness.
I have to bunch a few bottles, such a concentration of aromas is almost not to be surpassed. Unfortunately, the distillery was abandoned.
A rum for special days with time and leisure. Not necessarily for beginners.
