Sample X The Clarendon Distillery

Wird im Abgang immer trockener und bitter ansonsten ein schöner Carendon.

Weird but tasty Clarendon. It has a weird peaty note. Cool stuff.

Typical Clarendon blend of moderate esters and a hoppy, bitter spiciness - this one is esp. very much on the menthol and herbal side in the mouth. In addition, strong roasted aromas that also float around happily in the bottle. I would classify the pith more with the EMB than MMW. If it Jamaica but no high-ester rum should be, this is currently the everyday bottle in the cupboard. Alcohol integration could be a little better, but is also still quite young. Beautiful rum!

A pleasant drinking Clarendon, the 63.2 I find quite well balanced. Nice yellow fruity nose that turns to spice on the palate, ending with a warm, not too short finish. No High Ester but just a real Jamaican, which does not overwhelm.👍

Intense, bitter, greasy, strong spicy notes and fruity funk that is classic Clarendon. Sipping it was enjoyable. On a whim I made a maitai out of this and it was spectacular!

Pretty good rum and a nice surprise. Wood and fruit from nose to finish with some added spiciness. The funk and ester is very present and nice. There is a hint of nuts, licorice and menthol in the back. I love the warm finish it has.

Actually Clarendon is not my favorite, but this is already very intense with spices, bitterness, almonds, astringency, toasted aromas and wood.

Overall more on the harsh side. Typical notes of herbs and some fruits.

In the nose a typical Clarendon and very intense, on the palate it unfortunately loses something... the woody and especially hot spices predominate, fruit is hardly present! In the finish again typical Clarendon!Overall okay!

At first a flurry of alcohol, but needs some time to develop. Heavy nose with dominant fruit. The taste is good, with fruit evolving into dry woodiness in the cheeks.

Unfortunately, somewhat unbalanced roasted notes, which bring a very tart-bitter overtone to the obligatory tropical and citrus fruits. In addition, wood, green notes, light minerality and menthol - not uninteresting, but unfortunately too massive roasted flavors for me.

I like the nose much better than on the palate. There it is quite sharp-edged after all.

A dusty, dry dresser. Solvent, butter cookie, fruit, then tobacco and toasted hazelnut. Very nice and complex. Some acidity. Alcohol well integrated. With a few drops of water it becomes spicier.Then in the mouth very spicy and dried fruit. In the finish full load of herbs and 10 min pulled Assam.Great nose, but after that a very tart pleasure. Too bad. Anyway, I should taste again a few MMs

Un nez assez intense avec les fruits tropicaux typiques, des fruits jaunes, des solvants. Un petit côté vinaigre vient se mêler à tout ça. En bouche les fruits tropicaux laissent (trop) vite leur place au boisé et à une saveur grillée qui doit provenir d une chauffe assez appuyée du fut. La finale est sur les épices, un côté piquant et astringent. L alcool aurait pu être mieux intégré. Pas mauvais (son point fort est le nez), mais manque clair d intensité et de patine en bouche. Fait tout de meme clarendon assez jeune. Dommage.

Quite rough on the palate.
