Flavor and Aroma ProfileTrue to the classic "Heavy Caroni" profile, this 25-year-old expression retains the untamed and complex identity of the distillery:
Nose: Intense industrial notes of varnish, wax, camphor, and diesel fuel, balanced by sweet aromas of overripe bananas and dried plums.
Palate: Full-bodied, powerful, and oily. It brings refined herbal and bitter touches reminiscent of mint, Chartreuse liqueur, licorice, green walnuts, and a subtle background of pipe tobacco and cigars.
Finish: Extremely long and persistent. Menthol nuances, dry spices, and a peculiar savory note resembling sage dominate the finish.
