Clarendon Canerock

"Retasting this one and would have loved to try it at a higher ABV. Well price to quality is an absolute hammer. You get a lot for your money here. I was pleasantly surprised by this bottle. The nose is complex and well rounded with fruit, and spices trailed by chocolate, coffee and caramel. Try and leave the empty glass for a few hours and then whif it again :-) The palate is sweet and fruity with wood, spices and caramel. The finish is medium long and sweet with wood, spices and a light minty note."

"Rich, spicy and sweet - but not overly sweet. Long aftertaste"

"Overall a way too sweet rum in my opinion. Had a glass of this spiced rum after a better dinner at Såstaholms Castle just north of Stockholm. The Canerock Jamaica Spiced is pot still rum from Clarendon and Long Pond bottled by Alexandre Gabriel and Maison Ferrand. It’s infused with vanilla, coconut and ginger. Thereafter it’s aged for 6 months in PX-Sherry barrels and finally it gets a dosage of 25gpl of sugar."

"I have now significantly downgraded this rum. My last consumption was over a year ago when I still liked these sweet rums. In the meantime, this one is no longer my cup of tea. It tastes like caramel pudding."

"Delicious spiced rum, is very tasty to enjoy neat. Can also be used as a mix in various combinations. Tasty quality spiced rum that is not extremely sweet. but certainly gives a velvety mouthfeel. The bottle also looks very nice. The total look of Canerock ROCKS"

"04.2024 First impression: sweet rum, which also comes in a pretty bottle thanks to a generous marketing budget. Jamaica? Nose: sweet, toffee, caramel, coffee, roasted aromas Palate: sweet, toffee, caramel, coffee, roasted aromas Finish: sweet, short Conclusion: sweet, liqueur, can be drizzled on desserts, overall rating remains 7.0 1st Tasting 2022 (?) uncommented"

"Not mine at all... even as Mischgetänk Somehow very artificial."

"6:On the nose, the rum gently settles on a bed of sweet spices. It's coated with cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla, like a smooth coconut punch. One could even speak of a creamy rum, so mellow are the aromas. With a little swirling of the liquid in the glass, the spices are released in a cloud of fragrance reminiscent of incense or patchouli. 5,8:The palate is very pastry-like, with sweet spices such as vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon, as well as a buttery, brioche-like sensation. The roundness is balanced, and the coconut milk and almond are quite tasty, as in a profile of American oak taken to the extreme. 5:The sweetness remains on the finish, roundedness vains... Small print:We still have to point out, that this is spiced rum...."

"Nice desert "rum" with which friends can be surprised after dinner. Personally, however, much too sweet, use it only for cocktails."

"For a spiced rum not quite as sweet as usual but also nothing special..."

"Another Revisit: Very controversial, I like it one time and hate it the other time. Anyways it is a bottle kill and I am not going for another one. Taking down slightly from 6.9 to 6.8. Revisiting: Agree 100% with what I said. I need to mention that I got used to it more than I thought. The taste is something I never felt in a rum, very specific signature like, I still think it is artificial but being so specific, I learned to like it so I am adding a 1 point up.Original review: I must admit that I did not like it at first. All I got was just an unnatural synthetic smell/taste. Don't get me wrong, it is still there but after 3rd try, I noticed it's complexity. First of all it is sweet alright.There are various notes in the taste as well as smell ranging from vanilla, caramel, toffee, milk chocolate, marzipan, nougat to cardamom.Very complex however, it is unnatural and that is what is wrong with this one, you instantly know that the taste is unnatural, synthetic almost like if some real chemical flavor has been added which brings this one down for me.I believe that people who prefer sweet rums would certainly love it but for me it's really on the edge,so that I cannot figure out whether it's too much for me or not.Btw they label coconut taste-maybe synthetic one."

"The many good reviews convinced me to give it a chance. Definitely better than many of the well-known blockbusters. Still recognizable as rum, but not that it comes from Jamaica. The vanilla is far too strong for that, which clearly reminds me of vanilla pudding. Unfortunately, the taste is also more artificial than I had hoped."

"Canerock is a Jamaican spiced rum from Maison Ferrand, infused with natural spices. The vanilla beans are from Madagascar, the coconut from the Caribbean and the ginger is local. It's a spiced rum with unbeatable value for money. One of the best I've ever tasted, with its notes of vanilla, coconut, chocolate and spices, what more could you ask for? It's not too sweet either, which makes it really gourmand and pastry-like. With a really nice bottle and a very pretty wooden turtle illustration, I really like it, and it's unanimously appreciated by my friends and family."

"Spannend. Vor allem in dem Hintergrund das es kein Rum sondern eine Spirituose ist. Schöne Noten von Kokos und vanille zusammen mit gutem jamaikanischen Noten. Die Kombi gefällt mir sehr gut. Ohne zu künstlich oder überaromatisiert zu schmecken. Sollte man mal probiert haben"

"I'm mostly getting marzipan and coconut in the taste and it's rather sweet, but i tried sweeter spiced rums before. Pretty good i must say."
