    How does this rum taste?

    The Plantation Jamaica (LMDW) MMW is a rare 1994 Jamaican rum, distilled at Clarendon and bottled by Maison Ferrand. Distilled from molasses in a Vendome Pot Still, it aged for 27 years, showcasing a remarkable depth of tropical fruits, spices, and chocolate on the nose. The intense flavor profile features menthol, banana, and dried apricot. Bottled at cask strength with 65.4% ABV, it is complex and varied, with well-integrated alcohol. While its robustness is appreciated, some feel it might be overpowered by cask influence. It is a connoisseur's delight with only 354 bottles available, making it a highly sought-after collector's item.

    varied, complex, great alcoholic integration. It does control the acidity, so does bring out the flavor. contains enough flavor, and the alcohol is very weak for this abv, it's well controlled, and the finish is particularly nice, very long. After a long time in the glass, the layers of aroma become more clear and rich, showing strong spice and floral notes. The brown/slightly burnt sugar is wonderful. similar to '84 mmw(s). It's better to add a few drops to get this greediness. A relatively light, bouncy for 65.4% abv.

    Wow, this rum is fun. Lots of tropical fruit, menthol and glue. Pleasantly astringent on the palate with very well integrated alcohol. I like it very much!

    Great bottling with the almost typical menthol note, which brings depth to the otherwise of fruit esters, wood influence, spice, vanilla and subtle caramel sweetness marked flavor profile. In direct comparison with the 95 Clarendon but clearly in the rear, because the alcohol here most clearly appears.

    Surprisingly round and almost sweet! Alcohol is perfectly integrated and the finish is almost eternal.here neat menthol and glue meets tropical, strongly fermented fruit, plus some grape jelly, dark chocolate and candied spicy ginger. the so typical for so old clafendons meaty umami note is also present but here fortunately rather in the background. This one is fun and I really like it! I would definitely prefer the 95 RA Clarendon.
