A highly rare and collectable rum from one of the Caribbean's most famous "Ghost" distilleries
- Located in the heart of Trinidad's Caroni plains, Caroni was established in 1918
- Initially equipped with a cast iron pot still, which was replaced by single and column stills over the years, Caroni became infamous for producing a very distinctive heavy style of rum
- In 2004, just a year after the distillery closed, Italian raconteur Luca Gargano visited Trinidad for a photo shoot and came across the boarded-up distillery by chance
- He then learned the location of its warehouse, full of Caroni barrels - Luca couldn't believe his luck! Over the next few years the barrels were purchased, its contents bottled and released
- As word slowly got out, 'Caronimania' began to take hold and in recent years bottlings have been frantically sought after by fans and collectors
- Type/Colour: Dark
- Alcohol: 51.4%
- Bottle Size: 70cl
- Country: Trinidad and Tobago
