How does this rum taste?
Most love the powerful yet balanced Clarendon funk, menthol and tropical fruit with great alcohol integration. Critics find the cask and bitterness a bit dominant. Consensus: complex, serious Jamaica for enthusiasts.
If you’re into 1994–97 Clarendon or high-ester Jamaica at full proof, this is a logical next bottle: same funky DNA, extra menthol and oak grip, but demanding time and attention.
Beginners, those sensitive to 65%+ ABV, or drinkers who dislike funky esters, menthol notes or strong cask bitterness and prefer soft, sweet, easygoing sippers.

Plantation Jamaica 1994 Clarendon MMW Conquête 65,4%, 354 bouteilles : J'aurais pensé le nez un peu plus agressif, mais il est fin et subtil, de l'orange et de la rose. Après 45 minutes d'aération, il se révèle plus puissant et plus épicé. En bouche, l'attaque est forcément franche, mais - je me suis surpris à faire wow dans ma tête - il y a tout de suite une vague goudronnée et mentholée. Et ça, j'aime beaucoup. J'avais un petit à priori, je pensais être déçu à ce tarif, je ne dis pas que le tarif est justifié, mais je suis agréablement surpris, c'est vraiment bon. C'est aussi bien huileux, l'alcool est bien intégré, les 65,4% passent bien. Le finale est logiquement longue et suave, mais on a vite envie de se refaire une petite gorgée. Plantation confirme encore une fois qu'ils ont de très bons MMW.
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.
Nice selection from LMDW. Quite funky rum with loads of fruits very well balanced with some round notes of caramel, vanilla and chocolate. Great rum !
Er geht sehr in Richtung 1995er Jahrgang mit der typischen Mentholnote. Alkohol ist sehr gut eingebunden!
