Caroni Rum 20 Year Old Batch 12 // That Boutique-y Rum Company

Caroni Rum 20 Year Old Batch 12 // That Boutique-y Rum Company

What Atom Brands has to say about this release:

Usually, when you have such a characterful iconic rum like Caroni you typically wouldn't finish it because, frankly, it doesn't need anything else. But the problem with that approach is that you may never taste some amazing flavours because you weren't brave to experiment. At Boutique-y Rum HQ, the choice was made to pop Caroni in a peaty whisky cask and see how these two big profiles would work. Do worlds collide in blissful harmony? Do they crash and burn? That's up to you to decide. We reckon it's the former, in case you were interested.

Batch 12 is a release of 423 bottles.

Caroni

The Caroni distillery was established in 1923 on the site of the old Caroni sugar plant in Trinidad. Using both pot and column stills, Caroni was known for creating a heavy and full bodied style of rum that was heavily favoured by the British Navy and brought considerable structure to rum blends of the time. The distillery was sold in 2001 to Angosturra who promptly closed it. In a stroke of good luck however, Caroni wouldn't fade away like many other shuttered distilleries. On a trip to Trinidad in 2004, legendary rum bottler and pioneer Luca Gargano learned of a warehouse still full of ageing Caroni rum casks. He promptly purchased the entire warehouse's stock and over the last 20 years has drip fed stock through various independent bottlers and his own Velier label.
