    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise this Clarendon MDR 2012 for its approachable Jamaican character: tropical fruit and pear on the nose, light esters with gentle wood and spice on the palate. Many enjoy it neat, noting a sweet, round attack and a surprisingly long finish. A popular choice with 54 community reviews and strong buyer confidence, though some find the 46% ABV a bit light; limited to 6,076 bottles.

    Very nice discovery. Nice Jamaican notes. Nose with complexity and funk. Sweet and round attack, Abv a bit low to my taste, but nice nonetheless. Quite a long finish

    Alcohol anything but well integrated. Tastes somehow only after wood polish and nutmeg with apple cider vinegar.... For me, a bitter disappointment.

    #5242 12.04.2025 Running some white samples at home while relaxing a bit. Nose Fresh, light ester, light wood, faint smoke, spice, pineapple, light citrus, faint honey, light nutts. Palate Fresh, medium intense, fruity, spice, light ginger, light pineapple, light citrus, light mint, light honey. Finish Medium to long, warm, fresh, fruits, light citrus, light nutts, light anise, light mint. Empty glass Mint, citrus, light mango, vanilla, light chocolate.

    I do not know - one of the few rums in which I have so far misled - and where I can clearly understand what is meant by a description such as apple cider vinegar....Even to mix, I prefer when I need nen cheap Jamaican, the 10-money Meyersrum - the here is just hard alcoholic in drinks and brings all sorts of rough edges purely....Today I have a good palate for rum and he goes down amazingly well, on days where it is not so good, he triggers but also sometimes gag reflex .I almost feel a little bad because I'm here so about the rum herziehen, but I'm told the page here, serves to exchange his erhriche opinion and with a bottle of good Doppelkorn I would have had probably unfortunately more fun.dafür is the bottle quite nice.
