This limited edition, 22-year-old rum was produced in 1998, distilled in a Pot Still from Molasses, and bottled by Maison Ferrand, with a 49.4% ABV. Only 200 bottles have been released.

“Very tasty sample. Rare that such light rums taste so good to me. Likes the flavors of green pepper and the fresh cedar of a new cigar box on the palate.”

“An old Long Pond bottled by Plantation. The nose reveals beautiful notes of ripe exotic fruits before letting sweet spices, marzipan, medicinal and phenolic notes (glue, solvents and esters) speak. The green apple is felt after aeration. A nice fruity and balanced profile overall. The attack in mouth is light, fruity and spicy. Citrus fruits (lemon peel), some bitterness, spicy notes and a touch of freshness and roasted flavors are felt. Some phenolic notes come in and recall Jamaican funk in small doses. The whole is very smooth and easy to drink. The finish, which lacks length, recalls citrus, exotic fruits, phenolic glue notes, spices, wood and the bitterness already mentioned earlier. Clearly not a revolutionary profile (especially for the age count) and may lack expression, but an approachable Long Pond, especially for beginners in the world of Jamaica. The price/performance ratio is not bad either.”

“Esters and fruits first. Mouth on licorice and woody. Too little expressive. I expected much more.”
