CARONI 25 years - Vintage 1996 - United - Employees 6th edition - 66.60%
The renowned Caroni Distillery, founded in 1918 in the emblematic state of Trinidad & Tobago, is a historic gem of premium rums. Originally operated by the state, it had its own sugar mill, ensuring a constant supply of exceptional locally grown sugarcane. This legendary distillery, equipped with sophisticated apparatus including both column stills and pot stills, long maintained an air of mystery, with very few of its rums bottled under its own name. The spirits produced are distinguished by a unique aromatic profile, marked by distinctive notes of hydrocarbons, mild spices, and honey, which captivate enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike. The forced closure of the distillery in 2002, a direct consequence of the major crisis in the local sugar industry, greatly increased the rarity and value of these rums, which have now become essential icons for collectors. They embody an atypical and mythical character, synonymous with authenticity and excellence.
Caroni Employees United is a prestigious blend from 4 vintage 1996 casks, limited to only 754 bottles. This exceptional rum, powerful at 66.60% alcohol, is aimed at enthusiasts seeking a unique and authentic tasting experience.
