The Whisky Agency 1997 Caroni Trinidad and Tobago 15yo is an exquisite bottle, offering a unique glimpse into the rich heritage of the Caroni distillery, meticulously bottled by The Whisky Agency. Distilled in 1997 and bottled in 2012, this limited release of only 184 bottles carries an ABV of 50% and comes in a 700ml size. The rum opens with inviting aromas of caramel, tropical fruit, and passion fruit, complemented by hints of black tea and allspice. On the palate, the initial round attack is dominated by caramel and spices, quickly evolving to reveal the acidity of passion fruit mingling with menthol. A subtle rubbery undertone persists in the background, adding complexity. The finish is long and mentholated, leaving a persistent sensation of indulgence. Although some might find it slightly "light," its nuanced flavor profile and delightful experience make it a must-try for connoisseurs.

The Whisky Agency 1997 Caroni Trinidad And Tobago 15yo offers a complex and nuanced flavor profile characterized by rich caramel notes, tropical fruitiness, and a hint of menthol, with a spicy and earthy finish.
As a reviewer with a deep appreciation for Caroni's rare releases, I find this 15-year-old expression to be a delightful journey. Though some may consider it lighter than other Caroni offerings, the layers of caramel, tropical fruits, and menthol create a balanced and refreshing experience. Its limited production makes it a treasure for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
