DETAILS & COLLECTIBILITY

On the nose, this rum reveals the classic Caroni profile: deep notes of tar, burnt sugar, leather and smoky oak, wrapped in subtle undertones of dried fruits and spice. In addition, the palate is rich and layered, with flavors of molasses, cocoa, licorice and earthy wood, supported by well-rounded structure. The long, warming finish carries notes of spice, tobacco and a lingering hint of smoke, leaving an unforgettable impression.
