Caroni 1998 15 years old Velier - Extra Strong - 104 Proof - b. 2013 - 70cl
Caroni 15 is made up of barrels of rum distilled in 1998, part of the last stock of 630 barrels purchased by Luca Gargano in 2011 from Angostura. The 1998s are among the youngest Caronis bottled by Luca, but certainly not the least complex. They are also the latest products to be 100% made from local molasses, derived from the last sugar canes grown in Trinidad. In fact, cultivation had totally disappeared after the bankruptcy of the Caroni Sugar Refinery and the distillery in 2003. Tropical aging brought it to an angel share of 70%.
