Anyone curious about Jamaican rum but not ready for full-on funk lands well here. Long Pond brings pineapple and mango, Clarendon adds a yogurt-buttery tang, with banana and a young-oak spice underneath. Several tasters call it "a good entry level Jamaican," rounded and fruity. The catch: at 43% it reads a touch thin and the palate fades fast for some.
The community says- Pineapple-mango fruit
- Easy entry point
- Keep in mind: Thin, quick finish

How does Perola Long Pond & Clarendon Bellamy's Reserve Rum Jamaica Pot Still Rum taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Easy, fruity first Jamaican, fades fast Most see a friendly, fruity intro to Jamaica at a fair price. A few wanted more punch — it's mild for the style and the flavor thins out quickly on the finish.

Very nice price-performance ratio. Overall a nice Jamaican. The only downside is that it has too little alcohol and thus doesn't stay long on the tongue but disappears quickly.

An entry-level rum.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Note: Employment at Perola GmbH (spirits industry), partial professional involvement in the evaluated bottlings. All reviews are my personal, unpaid opinion. Very round, entry-friendly Jamaica rum. The typical pineapple mango notes from Long Pond harmonize superbly with the butyric acid, yogurt notes from Clarendon. The whole nicely dry and complex and at a very fair price-performance ratio 💯🇯🇲
Review by Johannes
Good blend, nice balance! First Clarendon, then a fruity Long Pond note comes through in the finish.
Review by cigares
Bellamy tasting. A nose full of ripe fruit and funk. Very Jamaican with young wood. The palate doesn't live up to the promise of the nose, with a not very pleasant bitterness, fruit and yoghurt. The wood is a little more pronounced. The finish is short and the rum too diluted for my taste. A fine nose, but neither the palate nor the finish live up to the nose's promise.
Review by BTHHo 🥃
There is a lot of fruit on the palate - pineapple and mango, but also a little sweetness and banana. There is very little wood present. The finish is not too sharp, but something is missing here, because the aromas disappear very quickly.
Review by HenryL
Somewhat peppery, spicy Jamaican. For me, perfect to show someone who has never come into contact with Jamaican rum what’s behind it.
Review by DomM
Nice blend to dip one‘s toes into Jamaican territory. Very accessible, yet enough to discover to spend some time with this.
Review by Joachim Guger
Good introduction to the Jamaican ester faction.
Review by Serge
A bit thin and young, but a nice blend from Clarendon and Long Pond. Good Jamaican entry, but mainly an affordable blend for cocktails.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 This is a retaste and I still think it's pretty decent. Notes. Now this one is better than the others. Nice esters and fruits with a spicy touch. Love the natural sweetness. There is a faint caramel note in the profile.
Review by Leo Krüper
Decent entry-level Jamaican. Nothing complex or demanding. Somewhat weak nose, but full flavor in the mouth. Great value for money.
Review by RumTaTa
Nose: very slight tropical fruits and a little ester. Clarendon is recognizable. Mouth: undifferentiated, the aromas from the nose are there but not very clear. Finish: clearer again: tropical fruits and cask side by side. Well, it doesn't blow me away. Especially the taste is too thin.
Review by Rumantisch
This Jamaican from Bellamys is nicely fruity on the nose but then a distinct wood note comes through in the mouth which I find very unexpected. It's not the fruity Jamaican rum but it's not wrong per se if you want less esters in the mouth.
Review by Torsten vom Endt
Not really my thing. The price-performance ratio is bad. The fruity note comes through but not too strong, the same applies to the spiciness. Somehow it lacks something special for more than a 7. Okay for beginners, but the price doesn't fit.
Review by Boletus
A decent rum that can be enjoyed neat quite well, but its greenish fresh wood notes are a bit too harsh for me over time, so I prefer it as a mixer. Overall, a good and affordable introduction to the flavor world of Jamaica.
Review by Mirco
Beginner-friendly Jamaica Blend. Nicely balanced with lots of sweetness. Sample from the RumX giveaway. Many thanks to Philipp & Perola!!
Review by Maxi
Bellamy's tasting: The first smell that flows to the nose is hard to define fruity, musty, grassy. In the background vanilla and wood, with the woody always becoming more present. Tropical fruits prevail in the long run. Taste-wise very mild and soft. The body is very thin and feels watered down. A mix of light sweetness, tropical fruits, spice and wood. The finish is short. This bottling doesn't really convince me. The rum is too young to offer sufficient aromatics.
Review by Werner10
A good entry level Jamaican. Rounded and very fruity profile.
Review by Oliver
Mild and sweet Jamaican. Ideal for beginners.
Review by Montana
A very fruity aroma, sweetish, somewhat sharp and alcoholic, a bit like sherry. The taste is slightly dark, spicy, aromatic, pleasant.
Review by rum_sk
Interesting spiciness woody, oaky aroma with reminiscent of chocolate tones of dominican republic. Young jamaican rum. Taste is nice but nose is kind off a let down. Very mild and diluted. I am not impressed.
Review by Djoul 🇧🇪
Surprising discovery Atypical nose, solventy palate Overall not unpleasant
Review by Alexander Rasch
Price-performance ratio is just right here. Bought for 35€ and for this it's a decent entry-level rum and mixer. Brings Jamaica flavor on the nose and also clear cask notes on the palate with 43%. Slightly alcoholic on the palate, but this tasting was right after opening. Overall satisfied, it will serve its purpose.
Review by Christoph
Another affordable Jamaican for an easy entry. For me personally, the rum was a bit too sweet and the typical Jamaican ester notes were somewhat overshadowed. Quite oily in consistency.
Review by Joël
Good beginner, nothing more and nothing less. Relatively sweet at first, then it gets relatively alcoholic as I find for just 43%.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Very mild and pleasant on the nose. Mainly feels overripe, sweetish and slightly medicinal. Feels noticeably rounder, but therefore less characterful in its origin than other Jamaicans. On the palate very dark, but above all noticeably thick and oily for its proof and price range. Some esters but mainly spicier notes and dark wood, generally somewhat 'fermented'. I like it clearly more than the classic entries into the Jamaica topic.
Review by R Wehner
Nose light Jamaican, mild; tongue slightly dry, spicy, woody, slight alcohol sharpness, overall missing the decisive Jamaican punch.
Review by Anonymous
I don't have much experience with Jamaican rums yet. As a beginner, I found it very pleasant though.
Review by Jindrich Strobl
Sweet nose tones and fruity and a bit estheric taste. Nice Jamaica.
Review by Azrael1802
On the nose overripe fruits, esters, lots of wood, some vanilla, some grass; on the palate tropical fruits, overripe bananas, notes of sherry, wood, with a mediocre finish, one of the better Bellamys but not a must-buy.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
I rate it 7.2 out of 10, solid rum that doesn't disappoint.
Review by Michal Jurka
Quite nice blend actually, I enjoyed it in the company of beginners, I especially liked the apple note. Even my mum liked it and she never drinks rum.
