How does this rum taste?
Crafted at the Clarendon Distillery in Jamaica, the Rest & Be Thankful MMW 1998 is a distinctive rum, aged for 23 years with a substantial 62% ABV. Users describe a complex profile with expressive notes of peaches, green pepper, and tropical fruit against a backdrop of wood and spice. This limited release, comprising only 179 bottles, possesses a nuanced aroma reminiscent of peaches, barrel-aged nuances, and marzipan, with a metallic undertone that some find divisive. While its high alcohol content could be more integrated, it stands out for its distinct character and balanced flavor profile, resonating with those favoring a strong yet refined Jamaican rum.

8,4:On the nose, the mark of the barrel is strong, we have roasted wood notes with nuts, marzipan, malt notes, spices like pepper and medicinal touch with glue and esters.The fruits are tropical with mango and pineapple... On aeration, peaches and strong melon arise, with orange peel and lime, flowery tones, some pastry, dark chocolate and clove. 8,5:On the palate, the attack is actually tasty with roasted wood notes, especially roasted nuts, caramel, chocolate, spices like pepper, ginger and some salt, strong pencil shavings and fruits like melon, peaches, pineapple and very strong litchi with herbaceous molasses, later grassy.Mango and citrus pop out after resting the rum, coppery patina and pastry 8,3:The finish is long, dry and tannic, slightly smoky, with most of the palate notes lingering on...l
A good MM that actually goes in the direction of Versailles/PM. Rather astringent, but also light fruity notes there.
In meinen Augen gibt deutlich bessere Clarendon MMWs. Der Alkohol könnte hier besser integriert sein. Ganz dezente Fruchtnote. Leichte Cremigkeit am Gaumen. Etwas Kräuter und Holz. Hatte ich mir von erhofft.
Hätte ich blind vom Geschmack her fast schon in Richtung kontinental gereiften Uitvlugt gesteckt wegen der Bleistift Noten die mir leider so gar nicht zusagen... Man schmeckt (und sieht) hier generell sehr das der Hauptteil der Reifung Kontinental gewesen sein muss, was der Qualität leider auch einiges an Abzug beschert. Der Alkohol könnte besser integriert sein, sonderlich komplex und angenehm zu trinken empfinde ich ihn auch nicht... Trifft aber auch einfach gar nicht meinen Geschmack.
