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.
The community says- Well-integrated 68%
- Chocolate and coffee

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.

A Clarendon with 68%, exclusively available in the Rhum.Attitude shop. The entry on the palate is already smooth and creamy sweet and convinces with tropical fruits. The spiciness increases towards the finish. The initially mentioned 68% are very well integrated! Could pass as an easy sipper for absolute hardliners =D

I don't like it as much as the first barrel, which was also in the Rhum Attitude shop. Here there is more chocolate but the EMB vibes work better for me in the predecessor. Don't necessarily need a bottle.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Surprisingly round and complex Clarendon considering the age. Bergamot and bitter orange marmalade meets overripe papaya, dark chocolate and Earl Grey tea. The whole very intense, slightly sweetish and the alcohol surprisingly well integrated. Nice thing!
Review by Loïc V.
Got this bottle quite some time ago so open for 2-3 years and almost over Nose : light fruits (papaya, peach), esters, medicinal Taste : roasted, black tea, bergamot, peach, toffee Finale : medium, caramel, bergamot, black tea For 68%, alcohol is very well integrated but shines with a dash of water Nice

Lots of fruit which I don't dislike at all.
Review by Buddudharma
For some unknown reason, I liked it significantly less than the sister cask.
Review by Pavel Spacek
My first feeling was - pine needles. The the rum extend to smooth non-alcoholic taste.
