    How does this rum taste?

    The Pure Single Jamaican Rum MMW is a distinguished 24-year-old rum distilled in 1998 at Clarendon Distillery, Jamaica. Selected by Rest & Be Thankful, this limited edition rum—only 105 bottles available—boasts a complex aroma of tropical fruits, butterscotch, and subtle notes of vanilla and honey. Its profile showcases a harmonious balance of wood, spice, and marzipan on the palate, with a medium ester presence that enhances its fruity and slightly tropical taste. Users appreciate its well-integrated alcohol and complex maturation, although some find its nose lighter. Perfectly bottled at a robust cask strength of 52.4% ABV, it offers an intriguing exploration for rum enthusiasts seeking nuanced flavors and a rich Jamaican heritage.

    Another very bright Clarendon from Test & Be Thankful. Very versatile on the nose but only medium intensity. I have a nice overall impression emphasized by spice. The palate is very similar to the other Clarendon bottlings from R&bT, but a little more intense. The rum somehow manages the feat of being dry and creamy-sweet at the same time. Towards the finish, a medicinal/salty note comes through again. The medium-long finish is a mix of impressions from the nose and palate. Very good rum but not my favorite Clarendon profile. I prefer the older 95 and 97 vintages.

    Master tasting from Rest & Be Thankful via RumX This MM has a slightly higher ester content than the other MMs tasted by R&bT. You can feel this very clearly, but in a positive sense, It is very present, with the classic MM flavors, but overall much more intense. Which makes it more pleasing for me. A very good, but not outstanding MM

    Slightly spicy taste with a touch of grapefruit - long aftertaste 👍🏻

    #4604 07.02.2024 online tasting with Rest & Be Thankful. Nose Faint roasted wood, fruity, floral, light mint. Palate Oily, light wood, fruits, well rounded, floral, light marzipan. Finish Medium long, light roasted wood, fruits, light mint. Very slow moving curtains in the glass. The empty glass has some chocolate, vanilla and light caramel.
