    A slightly extreme side that will please fans of the genre.

    A delight. Magnificent! Beautiful balance, very greedy, a little brioche with esters. Favorite 😍

    Une salade de fruits impressionnante avec une gourmandise extra. La maturation est parfaite et l'ABV magnifiquement bien intégré, c'est très gouleyant. Long Pond grand cru !!

    Velier really knows how to pick them. Another great release that is well balanced and great ABV integration. Fruity and funky with a nice mix of ester and wood. At release the price was really good and it has already gone up quite a bit since then. Delicious 😊

    Magnificent, what a treat. Among the best long pond that I could taste. And what a length...endless. 😍😍😍
