CDI Long Pond Jamaica 2003
Most tasters agree this is a light, easy Long Pond, but they split on whether that's a good thing. Fans call it "easy sipping long pond" with kiwi, gooseberry, fresh-cut grass and citrus. Others feel it's watered down at 44% — one flagged "0 complexity and 0 body." Pleasant and gentle rather than the punchy Long Pond funk people expect.
The community says- Fresh fruity nose
- Easy to sip
- Keep in mind: Thin, watery body

Light, fruity Long Pond, gentle sipper Divisive: a soft, fruity entry-level Long Pond some enjoy as a daily sipper, while others find it too thin and watery, missing the typical Long Pond character.

Nose: light, kiwi and gooseberries, white wine, freshly mown meadow, barrel and citrus fruits in the background, alcohol not noticeable, I have no clear idea, possibly a low ester Long Pond, I think there were some from Rest & be thankful. Palate: in addition to known notes, more spice and grappa come in, alcohol about 54%, I am quite sure it is a pot still Jamaica rum, wavering between low ester Long Pond and Clarendon. Finish: long, drying, floral. Very good light rum, curious what it is. If I had to decide, I'd say Long Pond LSO.

Disappointing for a Jamaica.
Review by Galli33
This is a perfect daily rum or to start your adventure of long pond 😜 There‘s 0 complexity and 0 body because it‘s watered down. 😔
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Easy sipping long pond.
Review by zabo
Tasted together with DomM in the Flower of Hawaii. Basically a nice bottling that brings a lovely creaminess to the palate, which is quite pleasing. If this had been cask strength, it would have had more to offer.
Review by Speedflo
Very light and boring Long Pond. For me, the typical Long Pond profile is missing...
Review by SaibotZtar
Light LP ... a bit too watery for me 😇
Review by Leo Krüper
Entry-level Jamaican with very little power.
