The Clement 2015 Private Cask Collection for RA 5yo is a distinguished and limited edition rum from the renowned Distillerie du Simon distillery in Martinique. As a part of the esteemed Clement brand, this unique rum is crafted from sugar cane juice and aged meticulously for 5 years and 9 months in a single American oak barrel, identified as barrel number 20100270. The tropical aging conditions contribute to its distinctive profile, which is then bottled at cask strength with an impressive 55.5% ABV. Only 268 bottles of this exquisite rum have been produced, making it a rare and sought-after addition to any collection.
The rum boasts an authentic cane flavor profile, enriched with complex notes of vanilla, herbal, woody, floral, roasted, cinnamon, and orange. This cask-strength rum offers a rich aroma characterized by a blend of nuts and pepper, alongside a fresh, herbaceous, slightly minty aspect. With aeration, it reveals layers of sweet spices and dried fruits, resulting in a pastry-like finish accentuated with finely peppered and nutmeg-sprinkled nuances.
Bottled directly from the barrel without cold filtration, Clement 2015 maintains an elegant and fresh oak expression, thanks to its aging in a tropical climate. As an agricole rum from the French West Indies, selected by the independent bottler Rum Artesanal, this release encapsulates the essence and tradition of the Clement house in Martinique.

Reviewers have noted that while Clement 2015 Private Cask Collection offers a decent agricole rum experience with distinct cane flavors, it falls short in some areas. The alcohol content is quite present and not as well integrated as some might prefer, leading to a slightly harsh experience. The nose and palate are lighter in intensity, with typical Clement notes of orange and spices, but lacking the expected punch. Overall, it's a rum with potential, but some users feel there are better options available in the market.
Spirit Radar is my daily tool that become crucial for my busines. As an independent bottler I follow my bottles (The Colours of Rum) on various e-commerce sites. On the other hand, a spirits' collector I use Spirit Radar to chase bottles I want to buy or sell. I also use "my collection" tool to value my own bottles. Spirit Radar become really useful and I can see the team works systematically to improve the app. I will surely remain loyal user.
