Rhum Attitude Clarendon EMB 2012
People who like their Jamaican pot-still on the dark, roasted side will want this Clarendon. At 68% it stays surprisingly rounded: dark chocolate, coffee and overripe papaya, with a bitter-orange marmalade edge and a hint of Earl Grey. The heat is tucked in well — one taster half-joked it could pass as an easy sipper for hardliners. Some found a sister cask more compelling.

Dark, chocolatey cask-strength Clarendon A rich, chocolate-and-coffee Clarendon with tropical fruit and remarkably well-integrated alcohol for 68%. A few felt an earlier sister cask had more of the EMB character.

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Überraschend runder und komplexer Clarendon in Anbetracht des Alters. Bergamot und Bitterorangen Marmelade trifft auf überreife Papaya, dunkle Schokolade und Earl Grey Tee. Das ganze sehr intensiv, leicht süßlich und der Alkohol überraschend gut eingebunden. Schönes Ding!

My first feeling was - pine needles. The the rum extend to smooth non-alcoholic taste.
