How does this rum taste?
The "LSO" Jamaican rum needs some time to expose its flavors. It has notes of light glue, plant, and floral aromas that lead to a slightly flat, bitter finish. This lacks fruitiness and tropical ageing character, falling into the category of an astringent, slightly overpriced sipper.

“Mir fällt zuerst die frische und blumige Nase auf. Hätte ich blind eher Port Mourant zugeordnet. Gefällt mir schon mal sehr gut. Das blumige taucht am Gaumen nicht wieder auf. Trotzdem bleibt der Rum eher wie ein sehr ausdrucksstarken Port Mourant. Der lange Nachklang setzt sich homogen fort. Erst ganz zum Ende blitzen ein paar Fruchtester auf. Sehr guter Rum, untypisch für Long Pond. Perfekt zur Verwirrung in einem blind Tasting.”

“On the nose yellow and green fruits and a good dose of oak barrel. On the palate, candied yellow fruits and toasty notes. Not super complex, but tasty sipper - but mE priced a bit too high.”
