The Moon Import 1969 Caroni 10th Anniversary 21yo is a unique and rare bottle, created to commemorate Moon Import's 10th anniversary in 1990. Distilled in 1969 at the renowned Caroni distillery in Trinidad and Tobago, this rum bears the mark of one of the oldest vintage Caronis available. The bottle is elegantly presented with a beautiful label, but unfortunately, the content has received mixed reviews. The nose is noted for subtle hints of vanilla and spices, but the overall aroma is considered light and lacking depth. On the palate, the rum offers a creamy texture but disappoints with a flavor profile that does not reflect its 21-year aging, resembling more of a younger rum. The finish is short and unremarkable, leaving a less than memorable impression. Despite its vintage allure and celebratory significance, this rum has been critiqued for not living up to the expected Caroni standards.
The ABV of this rum is 46%.

The Moon Import 1969 Caroni 10th Anniversary 21yo unfortunately falls short of the high expectations one might have for such a rare vintage. While the bottle itself is beautifully presented, the rum's aroma is subtle and lacks depth. The palate delivers a creamy texture but disappoints with flavors that do not reflect its 21-year aging, coming across more like a younger rum. The finish is short and fails to impress, leaving a sense of missed potential. Overall, this rum does not fully capture the essence of Caroni, making it a less favorable choice for discerning rum enthusiasts.
