    How does this rum taste?

    The 2007 Jamaican rum from the Clarendon distillery, selected by Thompson Bros., offers an intriguing profile stemming from its 12-year aging and 53.5% ABV. Crafted from molasses using a pot still, it presents an aromatic intensity of varnish, glue, and black tea. The taste profile reveals a dry, oily texture with notes of bergamot, solvents, and pear. User reviews highlight its complex and somewhat challenging characteristics, with noticeable solvent and fruity flavors. Its dry nature may not suit every palate, while hints of chamomile and apple add unique dimensions to its appeal. Some find the rum's dry and agricoly nature distinctive, making it a nuanced choice for experienced connoisseurs.

    responds well to water

    Pretty fruity yet musty Moneymusk. Pot still probably. Not an easy one. Definitely not for everyone. Give it some time. A bit agricoly-esque too.

    Okay this brought me back to my grandmas garden where chamomiles grew between our fields. I like when there is some emotion involved when I degustate. So that is why 8 :) Also I sense some glue, polish
