From the long closed Caroni Distillery in Trinidad, this limited edition cask #167 of 240 bottles was bottled for Sugarhall, Singapore by Berry Bros & Rudd.
Review and Tasting :
Appearance: Clear, golden amber.
Aroma: Pungent. Vanilla custard, cinnamon, orange zest, dried apricot and overripe banana with dark chocolate, coffee and nougat. Coal dust emerges with water.
Taste: Full-bodied. Dried fruit, vanilla, dry spicy cinnamon oak, light tar and bonfire smoke. The wonderful balance and body falls apart somewhat water - best enjoyed neat.
Aftertaste: Tar, slightly smoky, hot pepper spice, caramel and black pepper spice.
Overall: Pungent, full-bodied and characterful. Tar, light bonfire smoke and dry spicy cinnamon oak is mellowed by vanilla custard, floral notes and dark chocolate.
