2017 Caroni 17 Year High Proof Trinidad Rum 2000 110 Proof 750ml

Unearthed from Trinidad's most revered lost distillery, this 2000 vintage matured for 17 years before being drawn at a potent 110 proof in 2017. The spirit delivers Caroni's unmistakable heavy profile, laden with legendary notes of petrol, charred oak, stewed plantains, and rich molasses. It stands as a finite, irreproducible masterwork from an era of rum making that can never be replicated.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Industrial petrol, tar, and warm asphalt yield to charred tropical fruit, pipe tobacco, rich molasses, dried figs, and roasted coffee beans.

Palate: Viscous and powerfully structured, delivering signature notes of diesel and smoked leather alongside grilled plantains, demerara sugar, dark cocoa, and peppery oak.

Finish: Long, intense, and resinous, lingering with notes of toasted wood, clove, dark chocolate, cured tobacco, and persistent mineral tar.
