Long Pond fans looking for a tamed, easy-sipping version of the distillery will find plenty to like here. Fifteen years in the barrel put wood, vanilla and brown sugar up front, with overripe pineapple, banana and a touch of mocha underneath. The esters are held back, not loud — several members call it an easy sipper that still has real character. A few wish it hit harder.

Summarized by AI from 17 community reviews.
Woody, easy-sipping Long Pond with soft funk Most tasters land on the same verdict: a polished, well-integrated Long Pond that rewards you without work. The only gripe is that it's tamer and less estery than fans expect.

Review by cigares
A rum from the Swiss bottler Origin R. With tropical fruits, varnished wood and a hint of acetone on the nose. The palate is lively with roasted pineapple and rock candy sugar. The finish is moderately long with lots of fruit. The empty glass smells like sunscreen perfume. A very nice surprise. Retasted with oxidation and it's even better.
Review by Tschusikowsky
The rum is top quality for me. Vanilla, milk chocolate, tropical fruit, brioche, jam, esters, cask, light floral notes, bourbon. Perfect drinking strength, harmonious. It is accessible, you don't have to "work" to be rewarded by it. Easy sipping and still has a lot to offer. I like it exceptionally well.

8,7:On the nose, winterly, balanced with roasted, smoky wood notes like dark chocolate, peanut butter, leather, biscuits, pastry, perhaps milk chocolate, cream, spicy with baking spices, fruits like coconut and banana, some rubber, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, roasted nuts, mocha, coffee, brioche, toffee, join other notes, the fruits are fermented, with yellow fruits, the molasses is herbaceous, eucalyptus hints are present. 8,8:On the palate, the attack is delicious, buttery with roasted wood notes like butterscotch, confectionery, leather, later chocolate and mocha, spicy with vanilla, fruity with mango, pineapple, coconut, citrus and dried fruits, as the molasses is vegetal with briny olive, eucalyptus, dark with black tea... 8,7:The finish is long, dry, buttery with roasted wood notes, spicy, smoky, pairing tropical, yellow fruits and grassy molasses, fresh with tea, eucalyptus. Edit:2.5.26
Review by Speedflo
I find it very pleasant, it could be a little stronger and stiffer but otherwise great. Nice velvety, leathery wood notes and alcohol pleasantly integrated. The low ABV makes this Long Pond an easy dailysipper with potential in the Mai Tai.
Review by zabo
Mhm how do I put it best. The bottling is a mix of nice complexity that has character, but also a bit of a lighter easy sipper. To make it short, all in all I really liked it
Review by Gregor
For the first time in a long time. Again a very good rum. The alcohol content fits very well. Nice fruitiness with lots of spices and baked aromas. A round and exciting taste experience that you should have tried
Review by Skyfly
Very pleasant Long Pond with a wide variety of aromas from nose to finish. The cask has really done its job here, so that the base product is still noticeable, but dominated by wood, leather, chocolate, and coffee aromas.
Review by Adrian Wahl
Nice profile, but not outstanding. A pleasant coconut note, which I rarely have with LP.
Review by Jussi Piirainen
On the nose: After sitting in the glass it get woody notes ,baking spices/pastry notes and little bit of banana notes. Little bit of ester notes. Balanced. Taste: Vanilla forward. Brown sugar. Hints of overripe pineapple. Spicy. There is even hints of mocha and maybe chocolate in there. The abv is integrated pretty good, giving nice strong body to it. Very nice palate! Finish:Woody, roasted/eucalyptus type of notes. Vanilla. Banana. Lovely finish. Impressive rum from nosing to finish. Such rich palate. I absolutely loved sipping this rum.
Review by Jakob
Pleasantly round and easy to drink. Feels somewhat tamed on the palate, without the profile being completely lost. Has charm, but for my taste should bring more Long Pond expression.
Review by Snowman
The Rum starts strong with flavors of dried mango, oak, and dried fruits. It's nicely balanced on the palate, with added spice notes. The rum feels rich and intense. As you sip, you'll notice hints of exotic fruits, wood, and a touch of smoke. Overall, it's a fantastic rum.
Review by Nando70
Ah yes... What a floral nose.... With a little touch of its own... A little vanilla tobacco? I don't know... 😅The esters are contained and invite you to savor. WHAT A TASTE...😳 For me, this is a discovery in Jamaicans... A UFO for sure... a sweetness in the fruits and the floral that dance together... The alcoholic strength is very present (56.5°) and enhances the first impressions and spices up your palate. The finish is very long, and like all self-respecting Jamaicans, the astringency at the end of the mouth disappears, leaving you to discover the scent of sweetness.
Review by Gregor
Nose: Spicy, nutty (walnut, hazelnut, nutmeg), slightly tropical fruit, dark chocolate, alcohol comes through a little Palate: the tropical fruits come through a little more, alcohol could be a little better integrated, chocolate truffles on the finish
Review by rara67
Magnificent, a little something extra, a Jamaican to discover
