Clarendon S.B.S Jamaica MMW 2020 4yr 59,5%

RX19639 Very good Pot Still Rum Single Cask 158 bottles Under 100€
“Robust, fruity, estery notes with nice wood and spice balance.”

The S.B.S Jamaica MMW from Clarendon distillery boasts a robust and complex profile, making it a standout among Jamaican rums. Distilled from molasses with a pot still, this cask strength rum (59.5% ABV) aged for 4 years delivers enticing aromas of pineapple, tropical fruits, herbs, and a hint of glue. On the palate, expect a balanced blend of woody and ester notes with touches of dryness, roasted spice, citrus, and light caramel. The finish is long and retains its fruity and woody characteristics, complemented by subtle medicinal and spicy undertones. This limited release of just 158 bottles captures the vibrant funk of young Clarendon rums, enhanced by the unique influence of Pajarete cask aging. A must-try for rum enthusiasts seeking something both traditional and daringly new.

“A young Clarendon that's full-bodied, robust and very much on the ball. The nose is powerful, imbued with both Jamaican funk (esters, nail polish, glue, tropical fruit) and cask (a blend of wine and sherry). Lively spices and aromatic herbs energize the profile, which is fairly young, spirited and concentrated, but marked by aging all the same. The attack on the palate is sharp and concentrated. The tannins are very present, suffocating the palate with their dryness. The parajete has an effect, with an alcoholic side to the raisin. There's a marked woodiness, tropical fruit, glue, esters and pepper. There's a heavy, dry and powerful side to this rum that shows its strong character. The alcohol is fairly well integrated, even if you can feel it with the barrel. The finish is long, full-bodied and similarly constructed. Medicinal and fruity notes (exotic, citrus and dried fruit) follow with the cask, alcohol, spices (chili) but also with a slightly roasted side and very light caramel. A rather exotic Clarendon, but one that could quickly become stuffy over time, and whose profile could be absorbed by the cask at some point in my opinion. It's a nice experience, but shouldn't be pushed too far.”

“Quite good, young Clarendon with interestingly present estery notes on the nose considering it's MMW marque. The Pajarete cask adds a nice sweetness to it, would be interesting to see sugar content. I'm giving it a solid 8.2 points.”
