Fassbind AG Clarendon Secret Treasures Old Jamaica Rum 1991
"Very drinkable Monymusk," as one member puts it — and that's the whole story here. Pineapple and mango lead, with a little glue and light ester hiding underneath, but the 42% leaves everything thin and dry on the palate. Several tasters like it on a sunny day and would restock it, while others just call it watery. A gentle, easygoing Jamaican rather than a loud one.
The community says- Tropical fruit nose
- Easy sipping

How does Fassbind AG Clarendon Secret Treasures Old Jamaica Rum 1991 taste?
Summarized by AI from 10 community reviews.
Light, dry Monymusk — easy but thin Opinions split on the reduction: fans call it a rounded, easy sipper, doubters find it thin and short. Most agree the classic Monymusk fruit is all there, just quiet.

Finish Medium long, light, wood, orange, light ester, faint floral, light olive.
Review by DomM
Nice Monymusk expression. High quality. Tasty despite the reduction. Obviously overall intensity is muted compared to cask strength bottlings.
Review by Banana Joe
My expectations for the rum were not very high, and that's exactly what you get. An easy sipping rum without edges and corners. Slightly fruity on the nose, slight ester notes recognizable. On the palate rather dry. Does not stay long in memory, but not negative either. Very short finish. For the price, there are certainly better rums, but for Jamaica newbies definitely a good start.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Very drinkable Monymusk. All the typical flavours are there but the 42% makes it just a bit too thin. Although this is great on a sunny day. If you're lucky enough you'll find these for around 50eu which is well worth it.
Review by Leo Krüper
Thin and alcoholic. Not a good combination.
Review by Jakob
Very round, balanced impressions on the nose - tropical fruits with good influence from the cask. On the palate still round but noticeably diluted. The rum does not become flat because of this, but still loses some of its impact. A nice sipper that you would definitely take from the shelf more often - if it were still so easy to get.
