Indulge in the exquisite flavors of Kill Devil 1998 Caroni Trinidad Single Cask Rum. This distinguished rum, originating from the famed Caroni distillery in Trinidad and Tobago, was aged for two decades, embodying the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of the Caribbean's rum-making traditions. With an impressive ABV of 65.8%, this 700ml treasure is one of only 225 bottles released, making it a rare gem for connoisseurs and collectors alike. Upon release, the price was reasonable, but due to its rarity and exceptional quality, it has now surpassed the 450 euro mark. The nose welcomes you with a robust blend of spicy smoky oak and tar, accompanied by hints of raisin and rubber. The palate is equally complex, offering a tapestry of tar, raisin, and oak, seamlessly interwoven with notes of bitter rubber, caramel, tannins, and a medley of spices. The finish is long and satisfying, dominated by oak, spice, raisin, and a lingering smokiness. Whether you're savoring it neat or with a splash of water, Kill Devil 1998 Caroni Trinidad Single Cask Rum promises an unforgettable tasting experience, celebrating the spirit of Trinidad and Tobago.
