Drawn from single cask #879, this Heavy Trinidad Rum was matured in an ex-bourbon barrel and bottled at its natural cask strength of 58.3% ABV. The profile is unmistakably Caroni, combining scorched tropical fruit, dark demerara sugar and burnt caramel with the distillery's celebrated industrial character of tar, rubber, oil and smoke. After nearly three decades of maturation, the spirit has developed remarkable depth while retaining its powerful, oily and distinctive personality. Only 130 bottles were produced from this exceptional single cask.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCaroni (Silent) Berry Bros \u0026amp; Rudd The Auld And The Bold Single Cask #879 28 Year Old · 1997 Vintage Trinidad Rum | 700ML Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Dark demerara sugar and scorched mango, followed by ripe papaya and charred pineapple.

The distillery used both pot and column stills and was closely connected to Trinidad's sugar industry before closing in 2003. Its remaining stocks subsequently became highly sought after, transforming Caroni into one of the world's most collectible closed distilleries. Berry Bros \u0026amp; Rudd, founded in London in 1698, is Britain's oldest wine and spirits merchant and one of the industry's most historic independent bottlers. Through its The Auld And The Bold collection, the company continues to select rare and distinctive casks, with this surviving Caroni representing a remarkable piece of Trinidadian rum history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ConciergeUK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50153444278410,"sku":null,"price":3499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/3_cd1a1f86-869c-455f-9e63-f53cf32be640.png?v=1788811727","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/products\/caroni-silent-berry-bros-rudd-the-auld-and-the-bold-single-cask-879-28-year-old-1997-vintage-trinidad-rum-700ml","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
