Forget the glue-and-varnish you expect from Long Pond — this low-ester CRV goes the other way. It's soft, citrus-driven and fruity: mandarin, orange peel, a squeeze of lime, with bourbon-cask caramel and vanilla behind. Give it air and the oak steps back to let the fruit sing. At 66% it runs a touch hot, but it drinks far easier than the proof suggests.

How does Bedford Park Long Pond Single Barrel Jamaican Rum CRV 2004 taste?
Summarized by AI from 14 community reviews.
Soft, citrus-led Long Pond with barely any funk Divides Long Pond fans: some find it a smooth, fruity easy sipper, others call it too soft and one-dimensional for the mark. High quality either way, just not typical LP.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#7203 23.08.2026 Relaxing with some samples while watching the new episodes of Reacher. Very nice LP with a good price tag in my mind. Fruity profile with spice, light roasted wood, light ester, natural sweetness and some caramel.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Basically a good Long Pond rum, although anything but typical for Long Pond. Hardly any esters and funk, but more citrus fruits like mandarin, orange, and lime, and some spices like cinnamon. Overall, though, somehow a bit one-dimensional and not particularly exciting, I have to say. I also think the alcohol could be a bit better integrated.
Review by Stijn Zino
First time trying this mark. It's so soft and fruity. Very hard to distinguis the Long Pond identity in this, but it's there. Overal very fruity with lots of citrus notes. Some bitterness in taste. Long finish. Easy drinking but not really convinced as Long Pond fan.
Review by Jacques etdom
A very long, very pastry-like pond. Nose: caramel, vanilla, cooked banana, mango. On the palate, the same markers. Very easy sipper. Lacks complexity and depth to compete with other LP low esters. Finish on caramel and wood.
Review by J Suh
It’s really interesting how much this opens up - quite oak forward when you first taste it but on a blind taste it sings. Beautiful colours and flavour that really fit with a column still LP. Classic bourbon barrel notes but there’s an extra layer that really develops with the air.
Review by Kerry Brockland
Smooth, drinkable, overly enjoyable that I’ve been through nearly a bottle already with my friends to start the year… lots of ripe fruit, light funk, balanced as they come and great complexity for a column still.
Review by KlausS
Drying, woody, fruity. Not a huge standout but also a high quality product. A little hot on the alcohol.
