"Huge cherry tail"
"Tasted during our latest Road Rummers tasting. Very pleasant rum with nice level of funk, but not blowing me of my chair. If I am not wrong, this was the overall winner of the evening, but not in my personal taste book…"
"A big nose, best integrated Clarendon nose I have come across recently, some Demerara elements and great fruit. Mouth brings notes of mocha and a slight burn from the alcohol, overripe tropical fruit, cacao and spice. More present at times, not as integrated as it could be. Finish is long with a hint of capaccino and spice. It’s a powerful rum although lacks finesse. Good but not great"
