Long Pond Kill Devil Jamaica 2005
Overripe mango and a whiff of glue lead the way, wrapped in vanilla, toffee and roasted coconut chips, with oak tannins and a sour cocoa-nib edge underneath. This is a fruity, lightly funky Long Pond at full cask strength — several members find the 67% well integrated but still call it "biestig" (a bit feral). Fruit-sweet on the palate, though a few say the last bit of complexity is missing.
The community says- Overripe mango

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Could be an ITP or VRW... Light ester and glue notes meet slightly overripe and fermented mango, toasted coconut chips, sour bitter cocoa nibs and some green pepper and toffee with medium oak tannins. Overall also quite alcoholic but still drinkable. Not bad but not a highlight either.
Review by Jakob
Sweet basic structure, but not without force. Vanilla and wood, which enter into a pleasant interplay with the fruit flavors. The final complexity is missing, but it remains an alcoholic-intense, but still good drinkable rum.
Review by Joël
Voll ok für 67%, sind gut integriert. Gefällt mir, eine Flasche bräuchte ich aber nicht.
Review by Oliver
Still a bit beastly.
