Thompson Bros. Clarendon 2007
Loved by m8375e, Rowald Sweet Empire
For curious explorers, this 12‑year Clarendon pot still at 53.5% is a dry, musty-fruity Jamaican with chamomile, banana, pineapple and light wood. Unsweetened, a bit agricoly, best with water and patience.
- Complex profile
- Long warm finish
- Takes water well

Palate Warm, light wood, solvents, fruity, banana, light earthy, naturally sweet, spicy. Finish Long and warm, light wood, fruity, faint floral, tea, light chocolate.

Too dry... The nose is very promising... But in mouth it is not the same music... Disappointment.

Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Pretty fruity yet musty Moneymusk. Pot still probably. Not an easy one. Definitely not for everyone. Give it some time. A bit agricoly-esque too.

Okay this brought me back to my grandmas garden where chamomiles grew between our fields. I like when there is some emotion involved when I degustate. So that is why 8 :) Also I sense some glue, polish
