Velier Clarendon Rum Sapiens Wedderburn MMW 1984 35yr 69%
Rum Sapiens Wedderburn MMW is an exceptional Jamaican rum produced at Clarendon distillery. Distilled in 1984 and aged for 35 years, it's bottled at a potent cask strength of 69% ABV. The complex nose offers notes of nail polish, barrel, and banana, evolving to vanilla and mint. The palate is bitter, woody, and menthol-driven, with chocolate undertones and astringency. It's a dense and sophisticated rum, characterized by bold wood and ester profiles. While its intense alcohol and woodiness may not appeal to all, its incredible depth and lasting finish make it a standout choice for seasoned rum aficionados. Available for purchase and review on RumX.

“Day 8 of the Samples de Luxe calendar and tasted again a year and a half later. A nose of varnish first, followed by old wood, smoky citrus and a very refreshing menthol. A little less racy and vigorous than its green-label brother. Explosion of flavors on the palate with everything there was on the nose, plus some bitterness and a little saltiness/acidity. Beautiful tropical fruits and dried fruit blends. A finish marked by wood, (this must be an aged rum) and clearly long. Quite an experience to have the chance to taste this rum, whose aromas evolve as time goes by. Fascinating! Better than its green-labeled brother, but the difference is much less clear-cut than on first tasting. More freshness and more complex aromas. The empty glass also reveals unsuspected aromas.”
