Perola Clarendon Bellamy‘s Reserve Jamaica Clarendon MDR 2007
Most love its intense menthol, polish and woody Clarendon profile; critics find it too bitter, astringent and medicinal. Consensus: a technical, characterful rum that polarizes but rewards fans of edgy profiles.
Seasoned Jamaican fans who enjoy dry, menthol-and-polish-heavy Clarendons with bitterness, tobacco and wood, and who like analytical, “technical” rums over cozy, sweet sippers.

Úžasný Clarendon, silný, štiplavý, svírá pusu, toto chceš! Víc a víc! Žádná nuda. Kup láhev dokud je!
Bellamy tasting. A dark rum with a nose of menthol and polish, followed by yellow fruits. There's also a marked vegetal aspect. The palate, too, is marked by menthol and even eucalyptus, giving it freshness. A taste of unripe papaya, roast and tannins. The finish is long, with plenty of freshness, wood and fruit. A very fine rum marked by menthol, but fortunately with many other aromas. I feel transported to a summit, to an island, watching the sunrise with lots of wild mint all around and in the freshness of the early morning. Just great!
Parádní nálož technické vůně až takový Caroni nádech. Stejný masakr je i v chuti. Tropické ovoce, lak, dehet, mentol, kůže. Nemůžu si pomoct, Bellamy's muselo místo Jamajky nalahvovat Trinidad😃 Musím si nalít hned druhý kousek.
Mentol kam se podíváš..ve vůni i v chuti..a zároveň k tomu chuť medicíny/drogerie. Zajímavý vzorek, co mě bavil, dokázal bych si představit i celou láhev.
