    How does this rum taste?

    The Rum Jamaica (Flag Series) EMB, distilled at Clarendon in 2010, is a striking Jamaican rum. Bottled at cask strength, its high 66.2% ABV provides a bold experience. The nose delivers medicinal, glue, and citrus aromas, transitioning to a palate rich with esters, citrus notes, and young wood. User reviews highlight its unconventional, spicy character and fruity complexity, with influences from tropical fruits and spices. Aging for 13 years gives it a layered profile, though some find the alcohol poorly integrated. As a limited release of only 230 bottles by La Maison Du Whisky, it presents a unique tasting opportunity for enthusiasts seeking distinct Jamaican rum profiles.

    Schönes, etwas jugendlicheres EMB-Profil. Durch die HV-Abfüllung und insbesondere die 1995er-Abfüllungen ist aber natürlich ein Standard geschaffen, gegen den dieser Rum schwer ankommt. Auch in Anbetracht des Preises daher keine dringende Empfehlung…

    Nose starts of rather harsh but with some time to breath develops a nice basket of continental fruits, intermingling with some classic „Clarendon herbs“, spices and notes of glue. I‘d be interested to get some info on continental vs. tropical aging on this one. For me the nose displays a continent Clarendon profile at least 🤔 On the palate better balanced then I‘ve expected. Citrus notes, vanilla, some wood and sweetness. Lemon macarons! Best out of the 2010 EMBs so far for me.

    I must confess, I find this young Clarendon really tasty. Nice and wild with lots of fruit and glue. From this point of view, I like it even better than the older, longer-aged ones, which aren't really my profile at the moment.
