This 23-year-old rum, bottled by Rest & Be Thankful Whisky Company, is a unique expression from the Monymusk distillery, also known as Clarendon Estate, located in the parish of Clarendon, Jamaica. Distilled in an iron still in November 1998, this rum was put in an old bourbon barrel and underwent its first tropical aging before being transferred to Scotland for a secondary aging period, resulting in a total of 23 years of maturation.
Bottled in September 2022, this limited edition of 181 bottles was produced from barrel number 26761, which lost over 39% of its volume to the angels' share. This rum is a brut de fut, without coloring or cold filtering, and showcases the AHJ mark, indicating a distillation in a pot still and a target of 60-90 grams per hectoliter of alcohol for esters in the final distillate.
With 627.9 g/hlap of volatiles and 89.6 g/hlap of esters, this rum offers a rich and aromatic profile, reflecting its long aging process and the influence of both tropical and Scottish climates. A true testament to the art of rum-making, this Monymusk expression is a must-try for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
