Review by Djehey
A long weight reduction with superb results. Very easy to drink, as it's very well balanced. But it also gave it a lot of elegance. It also retains a nice complexity with good readability of aromas. Nose, palate and finish (long) are coherent: very fruity with a very pleasant buttery fatness. Despite the pale color, some woody aromas are present.

Very elegant Long Pond
Review by Johannes
Very good, round Long Pond with high ester profile.
Review by F.L.O.
Wow, what an awesome LongPond. Reminds me a lot of the very cool 11442 LPS from duchesse. It doesn't always have to be tropically stored - this one confirms that. The alcohol is perfectly integrated. Fruit, a little wood and medium esters create a harmonious picture.

Really lovely Jamaica! Estery sweet lemon sugar icing cake! 😍
Review by zabo
Wow, I'm really excited about this wine. After some time in the glass, you are rewarded with a super development. It does everything it should and even a little more. It has the full balanced flavor with the "low" ABV without appearing thin or watered down. A very smooth and elegant rum.
Review by Leo Krüper
Great LPS. With the 51% also suitable in summer.
Review by Jakob
Still primarily with fresh fruit on the nose, more complex aromas then emerge on the palate. Pastry notes, spices and barrel aromas are added to the tropical fruit potpourri. Nice complexity and balance, even the alcohol strength fits the distillate very well in my eyes - neither too brute nor too thin. Successful!
Review by Schnubbii
Tropical fruit and pineapple on the nose, less sweetness and more acidity than the WDC. On the palate, a very nice and round LPS with lots of tropical fruit, the pineapple is not as candied compared to the WDC, which I like a little better in the WDC. But otherwise a brutally round and tasty wine, no question. The finish is still tropical fruit, but compared to the WDC, the toffee is a little lacking here. For me personally, the WDC is the winner, but I also really, really like this bottling from Precious Liquors.
Review by SaibotZtar
Wonderful fruity nose delicious marzipan notes ... Ester clearly present but perfectly matching the rum. Woodiness very subtle on the nose. On the palate Slightly oily in the mouth . Alcohol very well integrated... At first it seems a little thin, but this is put into perspective as it lingers in the mouth and develops into a delicious fruity marzipan, pineapple and mango compote that you eat with a wooden spoon 😛😛😉 Great LP !!!
Review by Banana Joe
A really great long pond, but one that needs time. If you give it time, you will be rewarded with a great fruit aroma complex of yellow fruits and spices despite the low ABV. A rum for connoisseurs. 0.2 points upwards because I didn't give it the time it needed when I first tasted it.
Review by Mentalo
Great long pond. Alcohol is perfectly integrated. Pleasant sweetness, slightly oily and brings out the tropical fruit basket perfectly. With a hint of marzipan. The finish is unfortunately very thin and the bottling's biggest shortcoming
Review by Chrischi78
Very round, soft Jamaican fellow. Typical nose but then really remarkably smooth and round taste with excellently integrated alcohol. The finish is comparatively short. But there's always something!
Review by LukaŽiga
8,7:On the nose, the first impression we get is esters, there are juicy tropical fruits like banana, pineapple, that quickly melt in delicious marmelade. We cannot miss roasted oak, medicinal notes like glue, molasses with vegetal olive. Aeration brings out herbal notes, grass, citruses with lemon peel and papaya. Well balanced. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is spicy, vegetal and fruity with esters, our tasting buds are attacked with baking spices, a bit bitter molasses with an olive, eucalyptus, perhaps menthol, as the wood is a bit resinous, dry.The fruits are juicy, overripe, like melon strawberry, plum, grapefruit, melted into a tasty marmelade that goes directly in the freshly-baked pastry, with a pinch of a salt. After a nice rest, there is a layer of choc and some licorice. 8,4:The finish is very long with pastry glazed with honey, filled with vanilla cream, fruity, just a bit vegetal, marmelade. The wood is dry, toasted.
Review by Mirco
Great Long Pond with lots of tropical fruits such as pineapple, citrus fruits, mango, melons and papaya. There is also plenty of wood and spice. Although only 51%, the bottling is still very complex. Beautifully balanced and round.
