Precious Liquors Clarendon Jamaica Heroes Marcus Garvey 2010

A fruity Jamaican rum with pineapple, tropical fruit and floral notes. Very accessible, the alcohol is a little edgy. Slightly medicinal, mild, medium-long, fruity finish.

A great Jamaican that bears a strong resemblance to Queen Nanny in crosstasting. Lots of tropical fruit, glue, wood and a little ester. The sour cherry is noticeable again, accompanying the nose and palate. Passion fruit can also be tasted, as well as light spices and burnt sugar. However, the alcohol is a tick better integrated than in Queen Nanny.

Solid Clarendon that doesn't stand out. Good value for money.

Very fruity, not too many esters. Becomes much spicier with water but also even fruitier.

A surprisingly "funky" fragrance with mild esters that immediately transports you to Jamaica - but without the heavy, spicy intensity of a Hampden. Instead, this rum impresses with its fine fruitiness with fresh pineapple and tart green apple notes - very accessible and extremely aromatic. The palate is again full of fruit, but without the force of typical Jamaican ester bombs. Ideal for newcomers to the world of Jamaican rums, as it is smooth and balanced. The alcohol is excellently integrated. Exotic fruits such as pineapple, papaya, passion fruit and some mango dominate, accompanied by mild spices such as cinnamon and a hint of clove, which gives it a slightly medicinal note. The finish is rather light and medium-long, with subtle notes of wood and fruit.

Sublte, balanced and fruity. Accessible. Easy sipping. Very enjoyable but maybe a bit light.
