JAMAICA 1996 Clarendon The Colours of Rum W. S.

The Clarendon distillery lies in the south of the island of Jamaica at St. Catherine’s Town. The rum has been made from local molasses since the 18th century. Nowadays, Clarendon is among the top-tier rum distilleries in the world, since it produces around 12 million liters of absolute alcohol.
This 25yo Clarendon rum was bottled from a single cask which yielded 253 bottles. It spent 22 years in the tropics, before spending another three in the Old Continent. Distilled in 1996 in a pot still, and matured in an ex-rum oak barrel, before being bottled at a whopping 67% ABV.
Comprising only exceptional rums, ‘The Colours of Rum’ collection illustrates the remarkable selection work carried out since 2007 by the Polish trading house Wealth Solutions, which also markets rare wines, cognacs and whiskies.
