Description from the seller
Caroni 2000/2017 – 17-Year-Old Full Proof Rum | Cask #R4002 “Eataly” Edition
A powerful and exceptionally rare expression from Trinidad’s legendary Caroni Distillery, this Caroni 2000/2017 was distilled in 2000 and aged for 17 years entirely under tropical conditions. Drawn from a single cask (#R4002) and bottled at a formidable 68.4% ABV, it was specially selected by Velier for Eataly — one of only 242 bottles stated on the label (though 221 were ultimately released). With an angel’s share exceeding 75%, this bottling captures the full intensity and concentration of Caroni’s unmistakable heavy rum style.

About the Distillery
Founded in 1918 and closed in 2002, Caroni Distillery remains one of the most iconic lost names in the rum world. Renowned for its heavy, oil-rich distillate and deeply aromatic profile, Caroni’s legacy was revived by Velier’s now-legendary releases, which preserved the last remaining casks from the distillery’s warehouses. Each bottling is a snapshot of Caribbean rum heritage — bold, complex, and unapologetically authentic — with this 2000 vintage standing as one of the most intense and collectible examples of tropical-aged Caroni spirit.
