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 👍🏻
