How does this rum taste?
Clarendon’s Secret Distillery #3 SFJE, bottled by That Boutique-Y Rum Company, brings together a punch of yellow fruits—banana and mango lead the way, with a roasted undertone and sprinkles of spice. The nose catches most praise: Skyfly calls it “sehr interessanter Clarendon,” while Timo Groeger notes “überwiegend gelbe Früchte wie Banane und auch Mango.” On the palate, this rum leans to varnish and young wood, with warmth and a touch of herbal character. Alcohol integration splits opinion—Thunderbird finds it “nicht perfekt eingebunden,” while others remark “thin and alcoholic” (Jack M). Price-to-quality appears decent, though complexity doesn’t reach Clarendon’s highest peaks.

Very interesting Clarendon on the nose, which unfortunately diminishes in quality on the palate and finish. Various fruits, wood, spices and light esters on the nose. The palate is dominated by varnish, with the same aromas as in the nose, but the composition doesn't suit me. On the finish, the rum seems a little burnt.
I don't think it's bad at all. On the nose, we have predominantly yellow fruits such as banana and mango. It remains fruity on the palate, but some young wood and herbs can still be detected.
A good average Clarendon with good PLV! He combines all the classic flavors, only the alcohol is not perfectly integrated! Thus, it suppresses the full development of its quite good assets
#4193 I'd say price to quality is very good on this release. Intense on the nose after resting but in good way. Fruity with some varnksh/polish in the back. Lightly dry on the palate with a nice roasted note. Draws nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass has some light herbal notes as well as some ginger. A big thank you to Thunderbird for this sample swap 😊
