Long Pond Plantation Finished in 10 Générations cask STC❤️E 1995
Long Pond obsessives are the target here: a 27-year-old 1995 STC❤️E at a full 69%, dense with overripe banana, mango, cedar, tobacco and a clear streak of glue and solvent. It's a low-ester Long Pond that "screams tropical fruit" up front, then leans into wood, spice and dried figs. Give it air and the heat settles into a long, warm finish.
The community says- Long tropical finish
- ABV well integrated
- But: Strong solvent note

I would spontaneously say that this is the best STC♥️E I've had in my glass so far 😃 Even better than the Velier 2005 and 2010, perhaps not an entirely fair comparison. The complexity is more comparable to the 95/97 Fine Dram Clarendons... there's an incredible amount to discover on the nose, lots of dried fruit (raisins, figs), cream candy, baking mix, chewing tobacco, also a little herbal in the direction of aniseed and fennel, and subtly the typical LP gravy. Incredibly smooth on the palate for the 69% I'm thrilled!
Review by TheRhumhoe
A fabulous Long Pond that shows a remarkable delicacy for its voltage. The nose lets tropical fruits and phenolic notes express themselves, then let the floral and vegetal notes melt with pastry aromas, spices and a little patinated wood. A very elegant nose. On the palate, we find the same array of flavors with lots of spices and chocolate, yellow fruits and chili pepper as well. The alcohol is perfectly integrated, the whole rests on a remarkable balance of flavors and an infinite roundness. The finish is endless on the same flavors, all in control and elegance. An intense, complex, sensual rum that has everything going for it.
Review by Serge
The NRJ Cambridge rums are among my absolute favorites - of course I had to try this one. First of all: it tastes completely different. Less vanilla, curry leaf, tar, wax and fruit ... but (of course, after time) the astringent wood-water notes of long tropically matured rums. Roughly how you would imagine a blend of Cambridge and 95 EMB (in a positive sense). It's only after the first "oh, that's amazing" that you slowly recognize the similarities. Great rum!
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
If you can see after more than 1h breathing time times over the violent gasoline note can see here a really nice bouquet of old banana peel, coffee grounds, strong cocoa and espresso beans, citrus peel and intense tannins and a slightly fresh, bitter and floral note in the finish as in a 94 KFM already almost... Alcohol is top integrated, exciting but also very special and definitely not for every day. Since you must already have Bock on it!
Review by Double Barrel
On the nose: fruit/wood/green/spices, we can feel that the experience is going to be strong! Net: much too powerful, too bitter, too roasted for my taste buds. But with some water and time this Long Pond ended up relaxing. A really long and balanced finish between fruity, floral (the influence of cognac?) pastry, woody, spicy and burnt tire notes (a bit like Caroni). Not easy to access but it finally conquered me.
Review by Basti
Super intense long pond. Alcohol well integrated. I like it very much :) Edit: Tasted again with the 2005/2010 Cambridge NRJ bottlings. The Plantation has a completely different profile for me. Much more dirty aromas, petrol, some mint, tobacco. Slightly astringent on the palate. Reminds me a little of the Tamosi Long Pond. I still like it very much!
Review by Jakob
A real "board" - aromatically very dense with lots of fresh fruit from a melange of tropical and citrus fruits that can hardly be decomposed in the last detail paired with bacony roasted aromas, spices, wood influences and some caramel sweetness. Extremely intense, but in this force also absolutely impressive.
Review by Banana Joe
The starter to a great evening. If a tasting starts like this, where should it end? I'm still very inexperienced with Long Pond, but this one is quite something. I found the spices particularly exciting. Not too woody for 29 years and the alcohol is very well integrated. I'd love more of this.
Review by Thunderbird
This is the oldest STC❤️E I've ever had in a glass.... And it's really good! Not quite as fruity on the palate as the younger representatives, especially the NRJ, but still quite complex. The barrel is clearly evident, but still fits. The alcohol is very well integrated.
Review by Filip Šikula
This 27 year old long pony should have been the highlight of the evening and he did not disappoint. The high ABV is beautifully integrated, the fruit and chocolate flavors linger in the mouth for an incredibly long time, with the higher ABV warming to the belly on this long finish. One of the top plantation bottlings.
Review by SaibotZtar
Alcohol well integrated... In the nose beautiful fruity slightly sweet and woody everything in (for me great harmony) .On the palate it opens beautifully and fills the mouth. Wonderfully fruity, esters and wood ... Perfect for a high end Mai Tai ...
Review by Alexander Rasch
Awesome. What a great Long Pond. By far the best Plantation bottling I've tasted so far. And also the best STCE. Super complex on the nose and palate. There's a lot going on here. Alcohol very well integrated. Absolutely top. 👌
Review by zabo
Zuerst mal ein dickes Dankeschön an SaibotZtar für diesen geilen Megasplit von Plantation mit einigen wirklichen mittlerweile raren Abfüllungen. Bin ehrlich stark begeistert, was doch so Plantation jetzt Plantery kann.
Review by Jeremy Beranger
Powerful on the nose and delicious on the palate. A complex blend of fruit, spice and wood. Very long on the palate . Probably the best rum I've ever tasted ☺️
Review by Adrian Wahl
Very horny bottling.Special notes, which one of Long Pond STC🖤E not so familiar. The high ABV is noticeable, but well integrated. Certainly not a rum for every day.87/100
Review by Michal S
Interesting Long Pond with a bit of Plantation magic. The alcohol is fairly well integrated, but the 69% is noticeable. Esters recede into the background, instead notes of wood, spice and tobacco come in.
Review by Buddudharma
Profile indeed resembles a mixture of STCE and the 1995 EMBs, with a good dash of gasoline. Very intense, but the alcohol is well integrated. Great stuff!
Review by Richard Krupa
Tropical fruits, wood and a whiff of petrol. A long, pleasant finish that still retains the petrol and bitter figs and raisins

Top of my top 3 live whisky 2022. Hate to go back to validate the rating, but undeniably excellent.
