CARONI - 1998 - 16 ans - High Proof - 55%
The famous Caroni Distillery was founded in 1918 in the state of Trinidad & Tobago. This state distillery then had its own sugar refinery to ensure its supply of raw material, high quality sugar cane produced on site. Strongly equipped with different types of stills (column and pot stills), this legendary distillery has long remained secret and mystical. Indeed, few of their rums have been bottled under their own label. Their eaux-de-vies present a very singular aromatic profile with fragrances of hydrocarbons, sweet spices and honey. However, the government decided to close the distillery in 2002 following a crisis in the sugar industry. As a result, their rarity has greatly increased, taking these rums with such an atypical character into a mythical dimension.
This expression was distilled at the Caroni distillery in Trinidad in 1998. The 16 years of aging were entirely carried out at the distillery. The rum was bottled in 2014 and 3,850 bottles were produced.
