Long Pond & Clarendon Plantation Jamaica 2002

Most people land in the same happy place with this one: a soft, fruity Jamaican that's easy to like. Nose is all ester and tropical fruit, with banana that jumps out and pineapple on the palate. Rounded and gentle at 42%. A few call it a "no-brainer" easy start to the evening — but give it 20 minutes to open, and know the sugar shows.

The community says
  • Fruity ester nose
  • Rounded and gentle
  • Less suitable for: Anyone avoiding sugar or wanting bold, high-ester funk

A very nice vintage rum from Jamaica that has all the traits of a Jamaican rum. A very good bottle where you at the end of the palate get that it was finished on cognac casks. Leave to rest for a while before giving it a go. Price to quality is very good.

Bottle Market Bremen October 2024. Here's a really nice Plantation. The nose is very fruity and because it's Jamaica, you can also easily recognize the ester. The palate is also full of esters and tropical fruits. Delicious.

No-brainer for a relaxed start to the evening! Typical Jamaican ester fruits on the nose and in the mouth. The weak percentages also fit quite well for a relaxed start. But it needs to breathe for at least 20 minutes before it starts.
