Clarendon Monymusk Plantation MSR MSR 2007
Baked honeyed banana dusted with cinnamon, marzipan and a little candied ginger — that's the nose most tasters land on. On the palate it turns peppery and dry, spicy like fresh-ground cinnamon, with vanilla, milk chocolate and surprisingly light oak for 17 tropical years. The alcohol sits well integrated at 55%. A concentrated, spice-forward Clarendon that stays low on the usual Jamaican funk.

How does Clarendon Monymusk Plantation MSR MSR 2007 taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Dry, spicy 17y Clarendon, low on the funk Most tasters call it a marzipan-and-spice bomb with great depth for the age; one felt the wood and banana clashed. The value is a recurring cheer.

Super abgefahrenes und höchst ungewöhnliches Ester Mark hier aus Clarendon/Monymusk. Intensive Nase nach gebackener Honig Banane mit Zimt bestäubt und etwas Gebäck, sowie kandiertem Ingwer, Tonkabohne und Bourbon Fass. Am Gaumen dann pfeffrig, würzig, leicht scharf wie bei frisch gemahlenem Zimt, dazu wieder etwas Banane und Gebäck, sowie Milchschokolade, Vanille, Tonkabohne und schwarzem Pfeffer. Leichte Fass Noten aber verhältnismäßig wenig für 17y aging. Insgesamt sehr konzentriert, würzig und intensiv und top eingebundener Alkohol. Eine sehr spannende Abfüllung bei der ich umso gespannter bin was hier noch ältere Abfüllungen bieten können werden.

This is only my second Monymusk label, though I may have tried a Clarendon as well. The initial smell is tangerine and caramel. Maybe some banana cream. Then when it comes into your mouth, it's more like hot pepper and flowers. Fun stuff, especially the wild difference between mouth and nose. Some cream. A decent dose of oak. Spicy leave like a Latina slap in the face. Tried at Pink Flamingo.
Review by rbfsnow
A new tropical one column still Monymusk ! If you like the Velier MBS 2010 9y 62%, this 17y tropical 55% MSR is better in my opinion. More red fruits, dry, tannin, astringent, liquorice & marzipan 💣 bomb.
Review by Buddudharma
Sehr guter Light Column Still Rum, der durch die lange tropische Reifung enorm an Tiefe und Komplexität gewonnen hat. Tolle Balance zwischen Easy Sipper und anspruchsvollem Trinken.
