Clarendon herb basket on the nose with quite a bit woodies and a bouquet of continental fruits. There is also a note which reminds me of chalk. Same notes on the palate. Very much akin to other 2007 Clarendons yet at 50% reduced to an very nice easy sipping experience. It has all notes one would like minus an alcoholic stench which is present in quite some other 07 bottlings. Nice bottling at a good ABV and very nice price point. Speaking about ABV… while the label states „natural cask strength“, I am very certain that this has been reduced at some point. Coming out at 50.0% with other casks being bottled well above 60% would be rather surprising indeed ;)
Dieser Rum wäre sogar etwas für einen Underdog Split geeignet. Für den Preis, der aufgerufen wird mehr als akzeptabel. Schöne Abfüllung die ich sonst wohl nie probiert hätte. Jeder der den Split verpasst hat, ist meines Erachtens selbst schuld. Trotz der vermutlichen "Verdünnung" liefert er sehr gut ab.
Ist mir an der Nase etwas lieber als am Gaumen – denn dort wird er trotz geringem Abv sehr scharfkantig und alkoholisch. An der Nase dominieren Früchte (hauptsächlich gelbe plus Apfel ud. guave), gewürze und Kräuter sowie etwas Holz und eine schöne Süße. Am Gaumen die Kreide oder Kalknote, die man oft bei lower Ester Clarendons findet.
Nose by far best bit of this rum, elegant and well integrated. Light, fruit and caramel. Mouth brings peat and comes across as a whisky finish. Not my type of rum. Olive brine and some light meat with whisky backbone. The finish is light, fades into peat and smoke. Almost a bbq element, would wager this has been finished in a whisky barrel. Not doing much for the distillate, hard pass and should be more transparent on the rum
