“Outstanding nose, fruity with herbal notes; palate complex but harsh.”

The Clarendon 2010 12-year-old rum by Cadenhead’s showcases a rich aromatic profile with tropical and fruity notes highlighted by hints of herbal and medicinal flavors. On the nose, expect an inviting blend of tropical fruit, leather, and floral undertones. The palate delivers a bold mix of tea, herbal, and fruity elements with a medicinal undertone, creating a complex and multi-layered experience. While some users found a pronounced bitterness, the warm caramel notes in the finish have been appreciated.

“Kann erwarteterweise nicht mit dem parallel verkosteten HV EMB 2010 (RX227) und schon gar nicht mit den fast durch die Bank ausgezeichneten Clarendons der Jahre 1995 und 1997 mithalten; trotzdem solider Rum, der nicht zuletzt durch seine leichten Pfirsichnoten zu gefallen weiß.”

“With enough time in the glass, the nose becomes less „bitey“ and the bottling develops the common continental fruit basket alongside Clarendon herbs and medicinal notes. Despite the reduction in this bottling, a harshness remains even after quite some time in the glas. The reduction works pretty good on the palate making this one easy drinkable. Fruits, spices and herbal bonbons. Not bad.”

“Compared with RX16283 2010 Clarendon. Well, what is this one. A little sweet, a little bitter. Alcohol not optimally integrated. No fish, no meat. I can't imagine being able to remember this rum again. Plus the current price situation. For 60€ I would have seen an entry-level single cask here. As it is, this is a failure without any notable flaws.”
