Long Pond Spécial Édition ITP-15 (RX10803)

Introducing the Spécial Édition ITP-15, a limited release Jamaican rum produced at the Long Pond distillery. Distilled in 2006 from Molasses using a John Dore Pot Still, aged for 15 years, and bottled at 45.7% ABV, this exceptional rum has only 2402 bottles available. With a fragrance that combines spice, tropical fruit, banana, ester, and fermented notes, it offers a flavor profile of banana, woody, spicy, dark chocolate, and tropical fruit. Users describe this rum as well-balanced and velvety, with a delicious ester nose and a pleasant character. They note its harmonious, intense flavor and smooth taste, although some find it a bit one-dimensional and wish it had more depth. Overall, this rare Spécial Édition ITP-15 is a rum worth exploring for its unique aroma and taste.

The grilled overripe bananas jump out at me from the glass! Besides other tropical fruits and vanilla.In the mouth again ripe banana and vanilla, very mild and oily.In the finish comes a peppery and salty note and barrel. Overall very harmonious and intense, top!

I got this in the mail from Germany yesterday and I just couldn't wait until the weekend tasting it. Being on a week off from work and having a lot of time to arrange my rum collecrion I can always find a good excuse to sip one :-) I'd say this is a new super rum from Long Pond. Despite the age it has a solid oak as a backbone with fruits and spices on top. The funk is there and it's well balanced and velvety on the palate with a very light mineral touch with some caramel. It's not a cheap rum but I think the price is well matched with the quality.

Creamy and round with notes of coconut, banana and peach. Some leather and slightly toasty to smoky on the nose and finish. There is a dry nutty note on the finish. Although the ester level is low (ITP) and the rum is thus expected mild, yet does not lack the power to satisfy the palate.

Très banane avec un nez un peu ester. Un côté onctueux en bouche agréable... A aéré absolument ! La bouteille tout juste ouverte est vraiment moins bien.

Great nose, but on the palate it's a touch too bitter for me. The dilution has no discernible negative effect on the fullness of the rum, but the fruit notes are somewhat lost behind the tart wood and spice notes.

Sehr einladende Nase, die schon neugierig macht, wenn er auch nur etwas entfernt im Glas ruht. Wirkt in meinen Augen erstmal älter als 15 Jahre, da er trotz der eher geringen ABV recht voll und komplex wirkt. Leider kann er diesen positiven Eindruck am Gaumen nur begrenzt bestätigen, hier fehlt ihm doch etwas Tiefe, vor allem hinten raus, obwohl er doch auch recht lange im Mund verweilt. Trotzdem weit weg von dem, was ich an Long Pond mag, da vor röstige Aromen kombiniert mit etwas pflanzlichem dominieren. Wie so oft: Anders und spannend, aber gerade für den Preis dann doch auch wieder uninteressant, für weniger Taler gäbe es auch ein paar mehr Punkte.

Super nez d'une gourmandise folle, pâte d'amande avec écorces d'oranges confites et chocolat. Juste top! La bouche est en dessous, quel dommage car sinon cela aurait été incroyable. Finale assez courte. Bref, excellent rum du coté gourmand et super à essayer mais je pense que niveau qualité prix, il y'a nettement plus intéressant dans ce style (chez plantation ou NRJ vale royal pour ne pas les citer 😁)

schöne Nase: Trockenfrüchte (Aprikose), Banane, Vanille, etwas Leder. Spontan frage ich mich ob hier nicht doch Zuckercouleur im Spiel ist, das schon bei der Fassreifung zugegeben wurde (das würde zumindest die sehr dunkle Farbe für die 15 Jahre Reifung erklären). Am Gaumen ein etwas merkwürdiges Wechselspiel von Wässrigkeit und schöner Würze (Muskatnuss, Piment), und dunkler Schokolade. Der Abgang ist eher unspektakulär. Zweifelsohne gut zu trinken, aber für mich auch nicht wirklich die Premium-Qualität, die der Preis vermuten lässt.

Ganz schön gut! Angenehme , gute Verdünnung. Man schmeckt die tropische Lagerung. Erinnert mich an den Bristol 86 Long Pond.

Personally, I am missing something that I cannot define, it seems to be a bit one dimensional to me.

Der Rum schmeckt aber er ist einfach zu dünn. Ist wirklich schön rund und gut trinkbar, keine Frage. Aber das war es auch. Trinken und vergessen. Nix besonderes, da bieten andere deutlich mehr fürs Geld. Nachsitzen und besser machen Long Pond! Ihr könnt das! 😉

Un très beau spiritueux en digestif avec une dilution bien réalisée mais à ce prix, j’aurais au moins aimé un Overproof. Pour moitié moins cher je me tournerai tout de même vers les embouteillages de chez Velier.

Kein schlechter Rum aber einfach viel zu krass verwässert und hat eher was von nassem Pappkarton als von satten, intensiven Früchten und Gewürzen. In Relation zum Preis für mich eine herbe Enttäuschung...

Nichts Spektakuläres und viel zu teuer. Der Rum an sich ist nicht schlecht, aber hat auch wenig gute Eigenschaften. Bis auf den Geruch, der ist wirklich schön nach LP. Die Verdünnung wirkt viel zu stark und gibt dem Ganzen eine bitteren Abgang.

Normální. Přezrálé tropické ovoce v zajímavé vůni, chuť už tak zajímavá není. Za tyhle peníze jsou lepší kousky.
