With an ABV of 59.6%, this limited release (188 bottles) offers prominent notes of pineapple and vanilla on the nose, complemented by a woody, spicy palate.

    Skvela jamajka ..lehce ostrejsi ale to otupi:)

    Great Rum, I dont onderstand the other ratings of 77.

    An old, but probably mostly continental aged LP already sounds good.Nose: despite the almost 60% initially quite closed. Spicy and slightly woody attack with lots of citrus, lime and tangerine. Behind it a subtle honey note. Matching like vanilla and sweet, soft licorice.Palate: very pleasantly restrained. Spicy-woody with deep esters and a nice umami note. Restrainedly fruity with lemon zest and sour cherry. There's also some licorice in the background again. In addition, something Fiji-usual pencil lead, newsprint.In the yet quite short finish, still licorice, some blackberry and anise.Despite the very pleasant flavor profile a bit too closed.

    long pond LSO는 처음 경험해보았습니다. 럼 퀄리티 자는 나쁘지 않습니다만 다른 낮은 에스테르의 long pond에서 맛본 강렬한 열대과일 맛에 비해 부족하다고 느껴집니다. CS 임을 감안해도 여타 vrw/itp 모델에 비해 오크 스파이스는 강하고 더 매콤하며 과일이 약합니다. 23년 숙성보다 좀 더 낮은 숙성 년수의 제품이 있다면 비교해보고 싶네요.
