The Velier Caroni 1996 Trilogy Heavy Guyana Stock 60th Anniversary 20yo 64.46% 700ml is a rare and exceptional rum, meticulously hand-selected by the renowned independent bottler, Velier. Sourced from the celebrated Caroni distillery in Trinidad and Tobago, this limited release offers a unique opportunity to savor a truly distinctive rum, with only 200 bottles available worldwide.
Expertly distilled in 1996 from high-quality molasses, this rum boasts an impressive ABV of 64.46% and carries the mark of HTR. Initially aged for a decade in Trinidad & Tobago, the rum was then transferred to Guyana, where it matured for another 10 years under the tropical climate. Bottled in 2016, two decades after its distillation, this rum was presented without reducing the titrage, ensuring its robust character remained intact.
This 20-year-old rum offers a rich and complex flavor profile, characterized by notes of tropical fruits, deep molasses, and well-balanced oakiness. The palate is greeted with a welcoming warmth, followed by a smooth finish that lingers. Notable markers include fine, delicate woody notes, strong spices, and powerful empyreumatic characteristics.
Due to its rarity, only one bottle was obtained for distribution. In keeping with the principle of sharing and spreading rum culture, samples were created to allow a larger number of rum enthusiasts to experience this exceptional Caroni.
