The Alex Webb Edition (Magnum) MBS is a distinctive Jamaican rum crafted at the Clarendon distillery and bottled by Velier.

Im Vergleich mit dem NRJ Monymusk ähneln sich beide doch sehr meiner Meinung nach. Beide sind sehr gute Abfüllungen und ich mag dieses Mark sehr gern. Aber so side by side, liegt für mich der NRJ doch ein wenig vorne.
Nicely balance column profile on the nose. Caramel, milk chocolate and wood. There are also quite some tropical fruits. I get overripe mangos on particular. Nice. Same sensation on the palate. Wood, some tropical and citrus fruits and salted caramel. Definitely a high quality column rum. Not quite Guyana territory in my book, yet a very good and interesting contender. From memory pretty close to the NRJ release. Edit: Having both side-by-side the NRJ delivers a bit more power and „sparkle“. The AW comes with a bit more wordiness but also more fruits. Still both are noticably the same stuff and both good bottlings.
Whisky Live Paris 2024 (Messebewertung, nur Gesamtnote und persönliche Kaufempfehlung): Kann mich nicht begeistern, genauso wenig wie die anderen drei Abfüllungen der zweiten Magnum Reihe. Ich muss keine Flasche davon haben. Frankonians Tasting Gang - 21.03.2025 - Nürnberg: Zwei Clarendons, der RX1053 aus NRJ Reihe und der RX21819 aus der Alex Webb Edition. Wer Ester erwartet wird bei beiden Abfüllungen enttäuscht. Würze, Holz, Kokosnuss, ein wenig Frucht. Nicht meine Lieblingsjamaikaner aus dem Low-Ester-Bereich, aber solide. Bei beiden könnte der Alkohol etwas besser eingebunden sein. Unter dem Strich, knapper Vorsprung für den NRJ.
Im direktvergleich mit dem NEJ Vorgänger verkostet. An der Nase ist mir der alte sympathischer mit typischeren „good column notes“. Der Alex Webb ist dafür am Gaumen rumder, mit besser integriertem Alkohol und einer tollen Fruchtigkeit. Ganz anders als erwartet und dennoch gut.
