Other notes
- Steve James of the RumDiaries reviewed a RN Caroni 1998 bottle from the 2nd Batch, with some additional details on the distillery and methods of production.
- Independent tests by various other reviewers and writers suggest the sugar content is closer to 12 g/L
- I’ve looked at eight Caronis, most sourced in 2014. They are:
- Velier Caroni 1994 55% (86 points)
- Valier Caroni 1996 55% (87 points)
- Bristol Spirits Caroni 1974 46% (90 points)
- Bristol Spirits Caroni 1989 43% (85 points)

- Plus, there’s the original A.D.Rattray Caroni 1997 review that started Caroni off for me
