Description
Velier Caroni 1996, bottled in 2016 after 21 years of tropical ageing. limited edition of 3800 bottles.
Founded in 1918 in Trinidad and Tobago, Caroni is a state distillery which was running at full capacity until 1993 before closing definitively in 2002. Two years later, Luca Gargano discovered a dormant stock of a few thousand barrels, creating in no time an unprecedented craze.
Its bottlings are offered mostly cask strength and rums aged entirely in the tropics.
