Review by Stijn Zino
Beautifully balanced low ester Long Pond.
Review by Jules Selected Spirits
Price quality 👌😍😍 the alcohol 66,6% the perfect number for this bottle
Review by SaibotZtar
Very spicy LP . Dark fruits, honey, caramel, papaya and peach ...slightly peppery . Tastes and smells very tropical. I personally do not find the alcohol in any way disturbing. Rum approx. 30min in the glass when tasting.
Review by RumTaTa
The nose starts with bourbon vanilla, fruits and a restrained long pond profile. Tropical overripe fruit, red berries and a hint of wood polish. The alcohol is very present and stings on the nose. Very balanced overall. On the palate, first sour fruits then more woody and toasty. The finish continues in the same way, the fruitiness disappears quickly and a bitter note is added. The rum starts off more like a very well-balanced Foursquare, the Jamaican origin only becomes clear on the palate. The alcohol is quite dominant, a few drops of water help and at the same time strengthen the woody notes and also a little of the bitter side. A very good rum, for Long Pond rather well-behaved and not in the same intensity league as, for example, the Cambridge STCE.
Review by Speedflo
In der Nase ist der alkohol sehr präsent dicht gefolgt von schönen holz, leder, vanille aromen. Typischer Long Pond! Im gaumen ist der alkohol auch präsent jedoch nach 15min im glas sehr erträglich aber nicht perfekt eingebunden. Dunkle früchte, rosinen pflaume ergänzen die noten aus der nase dann im Gaumen.
Review by Adrian Wahl
Very nice LP. Exciting profile and not everyday. Very spicy 84/100
Review by Basti
Der hohe ABV ist leider sowohl am Gaumen (mit der Zeit wird es etwas besser) als auch anfangs an der Nase recht präsent. Insgesamt erinnert mich das Profil eher an einen Clarendon als an einen Long Pond.
Review by Serge
Delicious low ester LP. Nicely medicinal with polish, lots of spice and mango, papaya, yellow and tropical fruits.
Review by Mike H.
81 points. Nice LP even though the alcohol stings a bit. I like the nose a lot but expected a little more fruit on the palate.
Review by zabo
Mhm, für mich ist dieser Long Pond sehr komisch, der Cambridge 2010 find ich ja echt klasse. Aber dieser erinnert mich eher an einen Clarendon. Also meinen Geschmack trifft er eigentlich gar nicht. Edit: nochmal nachverkostet und mit ein paar Tröpfchen Wasser gestreckt. Finde ihn jetzt um einiges zugänglicher. Aber wirklich abholen tut er mich trotzdem nicht. Ein bißchen nach oben korrigiert.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Taste like 20% of LP with 80% of FSQ, nice
Review by Thunderbird
Low Ester LP...yes, definitely...but quite successful...I like the slightly spicier profile. It's not an easy sipper, but after about 1 hour in the glass it's already much more harmonious than at the beginning and the alcohol is well tamed
Review by Alex1981
Pretty hot LP that needs some water to tame. Shows nice tropical fruits and hints of esters (or is it peppery heat? Not sure). Overall a bit unbalanced to warrant a higher score.
