    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.

    RumX/Kirsch online tasting Rest&Be Thankful! 24 years old, Mark MMW and thus a Wedderburn, Medium Pot, although the ester content of 224 gr/hlpa is more in the direction of EMB. Nose: fruity-spicy with some wood and esters shining through. Citrus fruits in the direction of bergamot, the typical honey note and a resinous freshness somehow do not reveal the old age. In terms of fruit, I still find gooseberry and blackcurrant. A little graphite or tool oil comes out at the back. Very nice, 8.6. Palate: an intensely sweet and spicy attack with honey, licorice and aniseed. Briefly comes some graphite or pencil lead with another aniseed tip before a mix of tonka bean and apricot with some banana takes over. Very pleasant mouthfeel, but I hardly notice any esters. 8.6

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

    Nach dem RumX R&BT Tasting am 7.2. den Rest nochmal mit mehr Ruhe verkostet: Der letzte im Glas ist ein MM Marque MMW, also schon im mittleren Ester-Bereich. An der Nase tropische Früchte, eine leichte Klebstoffnote, Butterscotch. Am Gaumen fruchtig-süß. Wirklich süffig das Teil!

    #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.
