W.D.I. Marketing Clarendon Single Pot Still Jamaica Rum 1991
Opinions land in the middle here — interesting old bottling, but nobody calls it a knockout. It's a lighter, low-ester Clarendon: smoky ester on the nose, banana, citrus peel and green pepper, then young oak and a touch of bitterness on the palate. A few tasters found it drier and more modern than expected, one even sweet and thick-bodied. Drinkable and a real curiosity more than a showpiece.

Light, low-ester Clarendon curiosity Rated a fair middle by most — a light Jamaican worth trying for the history, marked down for a thin, unclear palate and audible alcohol at the back.

Review by Jakob
Schönes Jamaika-Profil, intensive Fruchtigkeit, Zitrusaromen, Banane, Gewürze, junges Holz. Keine aromatische Spitzenklasse, aber ein gut trinkbares Release.
Review by Mirco
Verkostung von Niki und Arturs Aventurien Teil 2. Besten Dank für die Möglichkeit diese alten Kuriositäten & Raritäten zu probieren! 😊 Nr. 6 Leichter Jamaikaner. Ausgewogen mit Frucht und Gewürz aber etwas Bitterkeit.
Review by cigares
Un rhum de la série “Niki’s und Arturs Jamaiksnische Aventurien Teil 2”. Des esters au nez avec des fruits tropicaux, de la pomme, des fruits jaunes et du bois léger. Des esters en bouche aussi, l’alcool est un peu trop présent, le boisé est bien intégré. Elle est un peu moins intéressante que le nez. Un rhum tout à fait agréable et plus “moderne” que les autres.
Review by Johannes
Nikis und Arturs Jamaikanische Aventurien Teil 2: in der Nase Clarendon, auch am Gaumen das typische Profil mit etwas Bitterkeit, aber auch leichter Würze und Frucht.
Review by DomM
On the nose there is this smoky low ester Clarendon note, I quite like. On the palate I could not point it to Clarendon tbh. Not too much expression there.
Review by SaibotZtar
Nikis und Arturs Jamaicanische Aventurien No6 Fruchtige Nase Banane etwas Annas. Olive , grüner Pfeffer Ester Zitronenschalen Abrieb (das weiße) . Am Gaumer erstaunlich Süß und dickflüssig. Starke Parallelen zu WP ... grüne Banane, Zucker Ester Pfeffer .
Review by zabo
Nikis und Arturs Jamaikanische Aventurien Teil 2. Zu erst Mal wieder ein dickes Dankeschön für die Chance solche Raritäten im Glas zu haben. Um es auf den Punkt zu bringen, war Jamaikanischer Rum vor Jahrzehnten nicht der Rum, den man heutzutage aus Jamaika kennt, denoch sehr interessant diesen zu probieren. Diese sind nicht wirklich spitzenmäßig, aber denoch mehr als Trinkerbar.
Review by Leo Krüper
In der Nase habe ich Säure, Holz und erkennbare Fassnoten. Im Gaumen dann Bourbon-Fass Noten und etwas Süße dadurch. Hintenraus ist der Alkohol spürbar. Gefällt mir nicht, wieder ein sehr unklares Profil ohne wirklichen Charakter.
