    Nachverkostumg der drei Clarendon Low Ester Abfüllungen aus dem Rest & Be Thankful Tasting. Dieser ist der mit dem geringsten Ester Anteil und bringt doch schöne Noten von Apfel, Birne, Bratapfel, Vanille und gelbe Früchte mit Holz und Backgewürz und Mandeln.

    #4600 07.02.2024 online tasting with Rest & Be Thankful. Nose Faint roasted wood notes, fruit, light, floral. Palate Faint wood, oily, fruit, light anise, naturally sweet. Finish Light wood, faint roasted, citrus. The empty glass has some chocolate and vanilla notes. Beautiful slow moving curtains in the glass.

    Mastertasting von Rest & Be Thankful über RumX Ein feiner Monymusk. Die Nase ist herrlich Fruchtig und lässt kaum andere Aromen durch. Am Gaumen ist er cremig weich mit Bienenwabensüsse und viel Frucht, im Laufe entwickeln sich Aromen von Kardamon und jungem Holz. Diese Aromen begleiten auch den Abgang, zusätzlich mit Lakritz und Piment. Ein sehr guter MM

    Leicht sehr fruchtige Nase mit süßen gelben Früchten aber auch Zitrusnoten. Der Rum wirkt noch immer frisch und jugendlich obwohl 23 Jahre alt! Am Gaumen zuerst spritzig und scharf, aber nach 1-2 Sekunden kommen die Würze und Aromen. Zum Nachklang hin trocken und würzig. Wenn man sich Zeit für ihn nimmt, bietet er einiges zu entdecken - kann von der Intensität her natürlich nicht mit anderen brachialen highester Jamaikanern mithalten, aber hier findet man einen sehr feinen und aromatischen Rum.
