Introducing the exceptional Cadenhead's TMCG Caroni Rum, a 20-year-old gem from a legendary distillery that has single-handedly earned Trinidad its reputation as a premier rum-producing region. Distilled at the iconic Caroni Distillery in 1998 using a column still, this high-quality rum was crafted from molasses, resulting in a full-bodied, heavy premium rum that stays true to the English rum style.
Matured for two decades, including time spent in continental climate aging, this single cask rum was bottled in 2018 as a cask strength expression, untouched by water, colorants, or cold filtration. The result is a truly authentic rum that boasts an impressive 62.5% ABV, exuding power, complexity, and a passionate, self-assured character.
Savor the interplay of sweet and fruity notes, warming spice, and oak undertones in both the aroma and taste. While the high alcohol content is noticeable, it doesn't overpower the rum, allowing the unique character of this single cask expression to shine. This limited edition is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to fully appreciate its exquisiteness.

Despite its age, this rum has very little wood influence, allowing the classic Caroni notes of rubber and tar to shine through. The nose is fruity with spices, medicinal notes, and caramel. The palate follows with spicy fruit, rubber, and tar, later revealing chocolate, earthy, and medicinal nuances. The finish is long with tropical fruits, spices, tobacco, and a hint of menthol. A lovely Caroni with a unique twist.
