Detailed Description

17 year old rum from the Caroni Distillery in Trinidad, independently bottled by the folks at Duncan Taylor. Sadly, the Caroni Distillery shut its doors for the final time back in 2002, though rum enthusiasts can still grab a taste of their rich, fruity spirit with indie bottlings just like this!

Distillery Information

Established in 1923 on the site of the old Caroni sugar factory with both column and pot stills, Caroni produced rums notable for a distinctive heavy profile which was supplied to the British Navy. Despite protests, in 2001 it was sold by the Trinidad government to Angostura, and it was then closed in 2002. But wait, that was not the end of Caroni distillery! The winds of fate changed when, while visiting Trinidad in 2004, Luca Gargano learnt of a warehouse full of barrels of rums in the derelict distillery. The barrels were purchased, bottled and sold and are now frantically sought out by collectors - a phenomenon termed ‘Caronimania’.
