Not very complex caroni, but one that I like.
Pefect dilution to 55%, good choice and because of that tasty. I'm a leather junkie. This is the perfect Caroni for me. I love the dark fruit with this dirty leather notes.
Sometimes I just wanna jump into this bottle and sit there for the eternaty.

The nose is dominated by leather, it's not very fruity, this caroni has more dirty notes like all 1998 Caronis. But there is also some currant (dark fruit) in the background. I like the leather with dark fruit.
The taste represents almost the nose, no surprises there. But the aftertaste is genious, leather with peppermint. Therefore 88 points.

Nose: Gum, wild leather, currant, barrel, wood, tanins, tar
Taste: tar, wild leather, gum, dark fruit (currant)
Finish: leather, wood (tanins)
Very tasty aftertaste. Peppermint leather with a light sweetness (some currant).
Oh my gosh, the aftertaste is so tasty.

Sweetness: 1.5/5
Fruit: 2/5
Spice: 2.5/5
Mildness: 2.5/5
Complexity: 3/5
Value (135€): 4/5
Experience level: expert

God rom, mangler lidt kant. God eftermsag af egetræ.

Caroni at 55%, Perhaps a bit sweetened, lacks some heavy-fuel edge. But still, a true caroni taste, an affordable price, in a nice package.
