Clarendon Flensburg Rum Company Jamaica Single Cask Rum 2000

8.2/10
Rated by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰, Skyfly & 14 more

What catches people off guard here is the salt — a real briny, olive-and-saltwater streak running through a 25-year-old Clarendon. It's a low-ester, rounded Jamaican with apple, mango and a soft, almost candied sweetness. Several tasters call it elegant and easy rather than funky; a couple compare its dry side to an agricole, one even to Port Mourant.

  • Long-aged roundness
  • Well-integrated alcohol
  • Salty, fruity character

How does Clarendon Flensburg Rum Company Jamaica Single Cask Rum 2000 taste?

Aggregated from 16 community reviews.

Salty, rounded, low-ester old Clarendon Most find it round, fruity and beautifully integrated for 61%, with an unusual salty note. A few feel it's pleasant but not remarkable — a fine sipper that doesn't need a full bottle.

Perfect for

People who like mellow, salty old Jamaicans without heavy funk

Less suitable for

Anyone chasing big high-ester funk or bone-dry oak

Hanse Spirit Hamburg Februar 2026. Auch dieser Clarendon gehört nicht zu den besten. Ist zwar relativ fruchtig und auch Kräuter lassen sich erkennen, aber irgendwie nicht mein Ding. Vielleicht wegen dem Salz, obwohl ich das eigentlich mag ;)

#6341 06/08.02.2026 My first visit to The Village in Nuremberg and it was a very pleasant surprise. I will definitely attend again as there is more than enough rum going around. Despite this rum being a low ester, the age has become it very well in my mind. Fruity and well balanced with very good ABV integration. Unfortunately I did not succeed in getting a bottle, but that may have been lucky because I spent far too much on the event as such.

Sehr runder Clarendon, dem die lange Lagerung sehr gut getan hat. Das Holz ist auch nicht zu markant; salzige und süße Aromen (Konfekt) harmonieren gut, wobei die Süße fast schon als gesüßt empfunden werden kann. Alkohol wirklich gut eingebunden.

Sample von der HanseSpirit‘26. Ein ganz feiner, alter Clarendon, der einige Konzentration verdient. Nase: fast schon zurückhaltende, sehr feine Nase. Er startet zunächst mit einer lieblichen, honigsüßen Weichheit, floral und blumig aber zugleich auch pflanzlich. Eine frisch geschnittene Rose kommt mir in den Sinn. Mango oder Papaya passen auch. Etwas dagegen steht eine leichte Joghurt-Note und der Geruch von Karton. Hinten wird er kräuteriger mit getrocknetem Thymian, Basilikum und etwas Süßholz. Sehr geschmeidig und einfach schön. 8,6 Gaumen: erneut elegant und fein. Da geht ganz viel, sehr dicht beieinander ab. Umgehend kommt eine florale, blumige Süße und eine zarte Mandarinen-Note. Dazu ordentlich Früchtebrot mit Zitronat und Orangeat. Süße und speckige Tonkabohne zusammen mit Backgewürz und Süßholz. Auch finde ich wieder etwas pflanzliches Richtung Kamille und Sesam. Sehr ungewöhnlicher, zurückhaltender, feiner und dadurch interessanter Low-Low-Ester Clarendon. 8,4

Nachtrag von der Village'26. Verkostet bei den Jungs von Kirsch/FRC. Für mich keine außergewöhnliche Abfüllung die ich unbedingt gebrauchen würde. Für einen 2000er Clarendon fehlt mir aber ein Vergleich. Mein Fazit aber denoch sehr gut.

Mal wieder ein kontinental gereifter Clarendon. Bringt viel Salz mit (wo FRC das hergeholt hat ? 🤔 Dazu kommen etwas Kräuter. Und ordentlich Frucht. Besonders Apfel und Mango lassen sich hier schmecken. Insgesamt gut trinkbare Abfüllung, die auch im Finish noch ausreichend Fruchtpower mitbringt. Tatsächlich überraschend gut gelungen.

Well balanced and accessible. Long time in the cask made this Clarendon very round. Low ester mark.

#1768 Whisky Watcher Tasting 11-04-2026 - Rate 8.5 Again FRC puts out a great bottle. They are turning in to one of my favorite bottler’s. They had a really strong 2025. I like the dry almost agricole like quality that old Clarendon has.
