„Verkostet in einer Bar und auch nicht mehr ganz nüchtern 😂 Ordentlicher Monymusk aber auch nix besonderes. Evtl. Ist die Flasche auch schon etwas länger offen. An der Nase etwas besser als am Gaumen.“

„Eine Frische, Citrusfruchtige Nase mit so einigen künstlichen Anteilen. Da sind Ester und Jod und ein leichter, nicht so angenehmer Hauch Ammoniak. Wenn der verflogen ist kommt die angenehme säuerliche Süße von Mandarine und dir Würze von Vanille und Holz. Hmm, sehr bitter, salzig und ein bisschen zu pfeffrig und scharfkantig am Gaumen. Tue mich schwer die Frucht zu identifizieren, vielleicht Kumquat. Aber der bittere Ton ist zu sehr vorne. Bittermandel. So bleibt er auch im Abgang, salzig bitter holzig mit etwas Tee und Bittermandel. Da gibt’s deutlich bessere JMM.“

„Clarendon Vergleich CDI, RA, TRC Der Beste, komplexeste und harmonischste von den dreien. Der Obstkorb ist sehr angenehm mit Apfel, Pfirsich, Litchi und Banane. Mehr Klebstoff und Politurnoten als beim RA, dazu sehr feinwürzig mit Keksteig, Bratapfel, winterlichen Gewürzen und deutlicher Eichenwürze. Im Mund angenehm Süß und ölig. Feine Fruchtnoten und feinwürzige Eichennoten. Außerdem Butterscotch, Keksteig, Wintergewürze, Rund und lecker. Für mich der klare Favorit der 3 Singlecasks Trotz allem haben es kontinental gereifte Monymusk einfach schwer bei mir und landen nur selten im Glas“

„Kein sehr komplexer MM, in der Nase noch typisch Jamaica-Funk, verliert er am Gaumen deutlich! Insgesamt aber okay!“

„Nase: Ein wenig Lack, dann Backgewürz. Zimt, Anis und Ester sind zu vernehmen Gaumen: Scharfer Auftritt, der sich eine Weile hält. Pfeffrige und bittere Noten überwiegen mit ein wenig Holz. Abgang: lang und warm sowie würzig. Fazit: Von einem 16jährigen Jamaikaner hätte ich mir mehr Milde bzw. Frucht versprochen. Dann beim nächsten mal😉“
