- Distilled in 2000 at Trinidad's now-defunct Caroni distillery and bottled at full proof at 70.4% ABV, this heavy rum captures the distillery's legendary character at its most intense. Caroni's heavy marque fermentation creates rich esters, dark fruit, and spice that dominate at cask strength, with the proof adding viscosity and burn. Essential for rum enthusiasts and Caroni devotees seeking an uncompromising example of the distillery's final era.
