Caroni Rum 24 Year Old Batch 8 // That Boutique-y Rum Company
What Atom Brands has to say about this release:
An exceptional bottling from That Boutique-y Rum Company of rum from the sadly closed Caroni Distillery. This is a HTR marque expression, matured for 24 years before the Boutique-y bunch bottled it up for the Boutique-y Records series (hence why there's a rave happening in the abandoned Caroni warehouse on the label...). This'll undoubtedly be ace.
Batch 8 is a release of 332 bottles.

Distillery
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.
