How does this rum taste?
The "DNC Do Not Collect EMB" rum is a distinguished spirit from Jamaica's Clarendon distillery, expertly selected by Precious Liquors. Distilled in 2004 from molasses using a pot still, it matured for 19 years, boasting a 59.8% ABV. With a limited release of only 950 bottles, this rum offers a complex sensory experience. It presents a woody, spicy, fruity, and vanilla aroma, with flavors of pepper, vanilla, and bourbon intermingling smoothly. Aged in bourbon casks, its intensity and woody notes are notable, showcasing a strong cask influence complemented by subtle overripe fruit undertones. Enjoyed by aficionados who appreciate continental aging nuances, it's described as flavorful yet challenging, with a profile that captures the essence of Jamaican craftsmanship.

Finish Medium to long, light dry, light wood, fruits, banana, medium spicy, light medicinal.
Tasted in direct comparison with the 2004 Clarendon from Precious liquors, the DNC unfortunately clearly loses out. The nose is rather flat and meaningless, everything is simply missing here. Unfortunately, it's the same on the palate.
A lot of wood initially closes off everything else, orange fruits slowly come through. The bourbon barrel also dominates the taste. A little (tropical) fruit can be detected. A fine example of continental storage.
