Forget the Long Pond funk you're bracing for — this one barely shows any ester at all. What you get instead is a peaty, whisky-like character several tasters swear points to a whisky-cask finish: earthy, smoky notes with bacon on the tail, wrapped around orange, mango and lemon up front. It's oily and mild for 21 years, and the body reads thin to some. Genuinely unusual, and divisive because of it.
The community says- Peaty whisky twist
- Oily texture
- Keep in mind: Thin body

How does Elizabeth Yard Long Pond LONGPOND 2000 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Peaty, whisky-like Jamaican with almost no funk A Long Pond that doesn't taste like Long Pond — one member says it "tastes like sweet whisky," and that peaty twist is exactly what splits the room. Some love the surprise, some feel short-changed.

#4086 Despite the price tage you get a pretty good rum here. Once rested for a good while the flavours are released and it reveals a nice overall profile. Fruity with some menthol/camphor and roasted wood. Fresh and warm on the palate that has an oily feel to it. Draws really nice and slow curtains in the glass and the empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some nutts and marzipan.

Very light in comparison to similar bottlings. Nose noticeably fresh/grassy/citrusy, very unusual for Long Pond. - But not bad. After a while, a smell like an old, musty cellar comes in. Very interesting on the palate: only towards the finish do the aromas of smoke and bacon fade away. I wouldn't be surprised if it had matured in a whisky cask.
Review by Christoph
Earthy notes that are more reminiscent of whisky. Not clear whether only continental or also tropical. Orange and mango at the beginning and end, lemon in between.
Review by Arya_NBV
Mild, well-integrated alcohol. Very slight funk, no "high-ester"! Taste also mild, rather soft. 21 years doesn't feel as expected. Body is slight. Aftertaste with strong crescendo, I also believe there is peaty whisky involved. But it fits well and gives an otherwise rather mediocre, unfortunately disappointing for the price, Long Pond a highlight. After letting it sit a bit, more body, but still tastes quite thin for 21 years.
Review by Johannes
Exciting bottling! Fruity at the beginning, more almond and marzipan in the middle, peaty finish, probably stored in a whisky cask.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
On the nose, it's immediately clear that we're not dealing with Jamaican High Esters, and I personally don't mind. Quite the contrary, in fact. But the aromatic profile is rather standard: ripe bananas, woody and spicy. With a hint of cinnamon. The nose is nice and makes you want to taste it. Let's go ! The first sip effectively coats the palate, which is loaded with peat! The second sip allows us to take full advantage of it: tropical fruits, spices, wood and peat again! And once in the mouth, I rediscover the peaty structure of the nose, which I hadn't felt at first. It's surprising, because on the other bottles, there's a lot of transparency (even too much), and here there's no mention of a whisky cask finish! But no doubt it is. In fact, this finish isn't disturbing, as it's rather well mastered. It brings a little something extra to the rum because the peat/smoke doesn't dominate the juice. But I don't think it's honest, especially for a keel costing almost €300! One thing's for sure, it's a far cry from the pleasure of tasting Plantation ITP 2000 (Extrême n°4). To conclude this lineup, a patchwork of origins with daring and/or successful finishes. But in any case, this lineup dedicated to the Scottish bottler was full of surprises, and we'd like to thank you all for your participation in making this evening what it was! And a huge thank you to David, who kindly shared 1 bonus pin to prolong our pleasure (I'll talk about that in another post)! To our friends at ROA (Salva/Alain) for defying the Carolo traffic jams to join us there. And thanks again to Elizabeth Yard for offering us the bonus Rum Union to kick off the festivities!

It tastes like sweet whisky.
Review by Andi
Not bad, but there's some aroma in there that doesn't fit my taste and really stands out. But still a great drop.
Review by Filip Heimerle
Great heavier Jamaica. Slightly oily and typically Jamaican :)
Review by Ondřej Sova
Very oily, almost whiskey-like rum.
