Most people land on "a good entry Jamaica" here, though a few find it sharp for the strength. The nose is the star: a whole basket of tropical fruit, juicy pear, banana, vanilla and a little resinous wood. The palate turns spicier and woodier, with almond, caramel and cocoa. One taster called it "not really my thing. A bit too sharp." A drop of water helps.

How does Long Pond & Clarendon Plantation Jamaica Grands Terroirs 2005 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Fruity Jamaican sipper, a touch sharp Well-liked as a first funky Jamaican — fruity, spicy and honest. The common gripe: the alcohol bites for only 45%, and it's more tasty than complex.

This one may need a drop of water or two in order to release all the flavours. I'd be willing to classifying this rum as funky, but it is of course from Jamaica so you'd expect that. A very nice well balanced nose and a funky palate with an explosion of flavours. The finish is long, warm and has some spices to it. Price to quality is very good.

Good daily sipper jamican. Lovely fruit basket paired with grated almonds and some honey with a hint of peppermint. This combination repeats in the mouth, without being any compley at all. The Finish is short-medium long. The alcohol isn’t integrated well, too spicy for 45% only. PLV is very good.
Review by Julien Ries
A fairly typical Jamaican rum, very fruity on the nose with strong aromas of juicy pear. Few esters both on the nose and palate. The palate is quite bitter and astringent. You can clearly perceive bitter almond behind the exotic fruits. There is also a spicy side, with a chili that adds some kick. Not a fantastic rum, but it does the job.
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
06.2024 First impression: very aromatic, clear golden color, clear legs in the glass Nose: wide range of aromas, tropical fruits, esters, wood, vanilla, even some smoke Palate: the alcohol bites first, followed by the barrels of maturation and fruit, complex Finish: medium length, warm, wood, smoke Overall impression: I like the nose better than the palate, pleasant sipper, maybe try it in a punch? 201X? no comments

Not really my thing. A bit too sharp
Review by Bernardo
The nose appears balanced with lots of fruit, a variety of aromas appear on the palate, much spicier than the nose suggests, long finish with spices.
Review by Ondrej Czinege
Nice aroma, fruity, taste gentle.
Review by Pepeto Neto
Plantation surprising, slightly peaty with caramelized banana... well, for me that's what characterizes it because that's what I smell the most.
Review by Zorman 🇩🇰
Good entry Jamaica.
Review by Manuel Barb
The first unsweetened rum I drank neat, so it has a special place in my heart. Since then, I have been collecting.
Review by Anton Krioukov
Delicious combination of Clarendon and Long Pond distillates, finished in cognac. A solid sipping rum.
Review by Michael Janek
Jamaican aroma, sweetish, amazing taste rich, sharp, splendid
Review by Tobin
After several minutes an apple taste comes in the finish
Review by Léo Delek
A fine entry for Jamaica. On the nose, a basket of tropical fruits (banana, papaya, etc.), resinous wood, light varnish and hints of leather. On the palate, red fruits appear, with blackberry/lemon and caramel, vanilla and bitter cocoa adding deliciousness and complementing what we already had on the nose. Beautiful balance
