Monymusk, 2010
RRP £109
Monymusk is produced at Jamaican powerhouse Claredon, a huge distillery with a key benefactor in the form of Captain Morgan, the hugely popular spiced rum. Many of the European bottles of this super-brand are produced here – but don’t let that fool you. This independent bottling of Monymusk is packed with flavour: a nose of white pepper, Sichuan pepper, ginger, bluebird toffee, and a hint of robust meaty funk. The palate gives sandalwood, blood orange, lime peels, green melon and ripe tropical fruits. A finish of rich runny honey and almonds, with granola and toasted coconut complete this tasty tot.
