Jetzt versteh ich aber gar nix mehr. Wie kann man diesen Top Caroni so schlecht bewerten?
Klar ein Kirsch oder Blackadder ist noch etwas besser,aber der 21er spielt schon in der Caroni Oberliga.
Für mich noch einen Tick besser als der 17 jährige aus der Serie.
Daher gebe ich jetzt 10 Punkte,klar ,Das ist hoch ,ein Kirsch müsste dann 11 oder gar 12 Punkte haben ,aber a) gibt es kaum Welche und b) kennt ihn daher auch kaum Jemand.
Der 21er ist im Moment noch problemlos zu haben und der Preis ist mit 220 Euro in Ordnung.
In ein paar Jahren wird es solche Caronis nicht mehr geben und über 220 Euro wird man lachen

Co napsat k tomuto rumu?
Caroni 21 je velmi zajímavý rum. Je v něm cítit poměrně vleká dřevitost a méně petroleje než v jeho bráškovi Caroni 2000 Navy Extra Strong 18-Year. Chuť je výborná, jen nevím jak ji pořádně charakterizovat. Až přechutnám podruhé napíši více.

I’m surprised, I did not expect this sweetness from a Caroni?? It is actually mild and easy sipper, still it’s 57 abv ?? Amazing. No doubt my new Caroni favorit. All the classic notes are there, but it is so well balanced. Recommended !

Vůně: Jemnější Caroni klasika, čistý strojní olej, pomerančová, starodřevitá, lak, vanilka, koření
Chuť: Nasládlá, pomerančově kyselkavá, dřevitá, štiplavá, hořká čokoláda
Dochuť: Jemně špinavý dotek hadru od oleje
I love it!
9,9/10

Like all the full proof rhum, this one is quite complicated to be drunk. It has to be warmed up in the glass, and tasted slowly, waiting for each single drop to evaporate in your mouth. The high content of alcohol will expand all the flavours of this rhum in your whole mouth. There’s a great complexity of notes from caramel to tropical fruit and some spices. The trick is to drink it drop by drop otherwise the alcohol will be overwhelming.

Une puissance et complexité qui s'affine avec le temps d'aération. un passe par tellement d’arômes en prenant son temps (30min)

57,18%

Country of origin: Trinidad
Raw Material: Molasses

Color: Mahogany

Nose:
Powerful and dry. Smells like in a lumber mill, being smoky and tarry. Furthermore there are notes of chewing tobacco, leather, licorice, roast lamb, almond biscuit and fruitcake.

Taste:
Powerful and bold, complex and very spicy. Notes of chestnuts, almond biscuits, roasted almonds and tons of licorice. Furthermore I taste chewing tobacco and espresso.

Finish:
Medium long, dry and spicy with notes of old wood and tobacco.

Wow - this gear has more grunt than a truck load of pigs! Not for everyone - High on alcohol and it does have some bite - But a great piece of Trinidad`s rum history that once gone is gone forever. I got one bottle to drink and one to collect, along with the 17 yo and the 15 yo. I personally enjoyed this a lot but my wife does not agree! :)
