Holmes Cay Jamaica EMB 2014 Rum｜ Other Products

Drinkhacker ranked this fifth among the top ten rums of 2022. Holmes Cay is Eric Kaye's New York-based independent bottler, founded in 2019 to bring single-cask, cask-strength, additive-free rum to America with full transparency; Esquire named it one of the ten best rum brands. The Jamaica EMB 2014 is pot-still rum from Clarendon Distillers — the Monymusk estate in Clarendon Parish, the workhorse of Jamaican rum and the source of the island's best-known blends — under the EMB marque, a mid-to-high-ester recipe, all-molasses, fully tropically aged eight years in ex-bourbon oak in Jamaica, and bottled in New York State at cask strength with no sugar, color, or flavoring; check your label for the exact ABV. RumX scores it 7.0 to 7.3, and Rum Ratings' drinkers place it solidly in the bottler's Jamaican lineup. Clarendon pot still at eight tropical years is Jamaican funk in a rounder register than Hampden: expect overripe banana, pineapple, and a savory ester note on the nose over caramel and vanilla, opening into a rich, oily palate of tropical fruit, brown sugar, baking spice, and toasted oak with a peppery warmth, finishing long. Honest note: a single cask at cask strength, priced for rarity and a top-five ranking, for the Jamaican rum drinker who wants Clarendon on its own rather than in a blend. Neat, with a drop of water, or in a Mai Tai that deserves it. Monymusk, eight years, one barrel.Buy Holmes Cay Jamaica EMB 2014 Rum online with fast shipping right to your door.
