    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the incredible integration of the 76% ABV here: a powerful Long Pond that stays surprisingly drinkable. Expect funky esters and tropical fruit (pineapple, banana) over woody spice, with a warm finish that turns a bit dry. Many give it time in the glass or add a splash of water. With 98 reviews and just 298 bottles, it’s a popular, high-impact pick.

    Le nez est un peu fermé même avec de l'aération. La bouche est impressionnante. On a les fruits tropicaux et les esters d'un jamaïcain avec des marqueurs d'un rhum longuement vieilli sous les tropicaux (boisé, cacao, cuir). C'est plaisant, la bouche est longue. L'alcool est incroyablement intégré.

    Atomic bomb actuallly a little too much explosive but what a tasteful one ,always time for more info

    Woohoo what a grenade... Brachial Long Pond 😎 Alcohol incredibly well integrated and at an incredible 76% 😳😳😳😳 Dilution, Uhu come first, Bääähm💥 full in the Fre... e .... Gradually it opens up and fruits, wood, honey and of course "umami" come through well. An insane drop!!!! I am thrilled.... Let's see what he delivers in May Tai.

    I have been interested in this for a long time. I love LP, and then here such an old with mighty wums!Nose: nice compact, intense and tasty. Once the initial % boost is gone, you have a great aroma play. Max 150 esters let the fruity aromas come through nicely. Blood orange, currant and raisin. Age gives a nice woodiness, lightly toasted and malty with some cocoa powder. Heavy sweetness of cream toffee and vanilla. Wow!Palate: blatantly astringent at the start, it lays down a great flavor curve through slightly bitter, strong esters, sour pineapple, to cassis, green apple and woody flavors. Then out the back some leather, very light licorice and papaya. The alcohol is fantastically integrated. 19 J tropical 4 J cognac barrel actually do it very well. Great rum!
