Distilled by master blender Roopnarine 'Roop' Toolsie, this full-proof expression captures the bold, funky character that defined Caroni's reputation—rich molasses notes, tropical fruit, and a distinctive vegetal complexity that collectors prize.\n\nAged in the Caribbean climate, this bottling delivers concentrated flavor with minimal dilution. The heavy distillate base provides layered depth: dark caramel, spice, and a lingering warmth that speaks to both the spirit's provenance and Velier's commitment to authentic, uncompromised releases.\n\nA collector's dram and a testament to Caroni's uncompromising style.","brand":"continental-ws","offers":[{"title":"700mL","offer_id":51601764122912,"sku":"99375","price":1789.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0903\/8725\/1488\/files\/99375.jpg?v=1761998568","url":"https:\/\/www.continentalws.com\/products\/caroni-1996-velier-full-proof-heavy-roopnarine-roop-toolsie","provider":"Continental Wine \u0026 Spirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
