     Tasted during the RumX masterclass. Huge thanks the guys from R&BT for presenting their range! Very nice exploration of some low(we) ester marks. While some of the noses were a little light, the long aged expressions are very interesting on the palate across the board. Very interesting! :) Round and pleasant low ester Clarendon.

     Spicy mid-low ester Clarendon. Nice fruity notes with pear, tropical fruits, yellow fruits and also some kiwi. Licorice is also there. Pleasantly drinkable. On the palate a hint of calvados, fruit, licorice again and vanilla and nutmeg.

     Master tasting by Rest & BeThankful via RumX In addition to the sweet fruit, this MM surprises with a menthol note on the nose. Very unusual. On the palate it is classically fruity and sweet, with some allspice, cask and tannins. This interplay of aromas continues on the finish. This is a very good and balanced MM
