Cadenhead‘s Clarendon 2003
Highly praised as a smooth, elegant Monymusk with balanced tropical fruit, herbs and wood. Alcohol is well integrated and the profile is refined rather than funky, appealing to thoughtful sippers.
Enthusiasts who enjoy balanced, moderately esteric Jamaican rum with tropical fruit, herbal notes and gentle oak, and whisky drinkers looking for a refined cask-strength crossover sipper.

Elegant, refined Clarendon for focused sipping

09.05.2025 Retasting at our local tasting with Hannes from Whisky Watcher. ----- Still a good rum ----- #4627 24.02.2024 Great tasting event at Whisky Watcher with food and lots of bottles. Nose Light wood, fruity, balanced, light glue, herbs, faibt mint. Palate Oily, naturally sweet, light roasted wood, fruity, herbs, light chocolate. Finish Medium to long, light roasted wood, dry, herbs, citrus.
One of the smoothest MM I tasted so far. Rather light on the nose, providing a well rounded combination of fruits and herbs. Same does continue throughout. Elegant and well balanced MM with moderate ester concentration.
Trade fair evaluation - Hanse Spirit.
Auto-translatedA very pleasant balanced MM! The alcohol is well integrated, it is almost too well-behaved! The bottling is absolutely successful.
