- Description
- Caroni's 1996 vintage, aged 25 years and bottled at 66.6%, exemplifies the distillery's signature heavy, industrial character. Dark and intense, it delivers tar, burnt caramel, dark molasses, and prune with a rubbery mineral edge. The high proof and aged structure create a thick, coating mouthfeel with lingering heat. Essential for collectors of Caroni's uncompromising style.
