    How does this rum taste?

    • Superbly integrated high ABV
    • Complex tropical fruits and esters
    • Long, dry, warming finish

    Intense tropical fruit and estery notes leap from the glass, underpinned by bold wood and spice. Community reviewers are especially impressed by the exceptional integration of its 76% ABV, bringing complex layers of ripe banana, pineapple, cacao, and subtle umami without overwhelming heat. A limited, powerhouse Long Pond for lovers of concentrated, technical Jamaican rums—worth a closer look if you crave intensity and rewarding depth.

    "Also das ist Mal wirklich abgefahren 😃 irgendwie erinnert mich das geschmacklich extrem an Absinth und Ouzo zusammen mit der für die TECA typische leicht vergorene kompost und Fleisch Note und etwas Kakao und weitere tropische Früchte. Im Gegensatz zu meinem Endgegner Teca 2003 ist das hier aber durch diese Anis frische angenehm (obwohl ich Anis hasse!) Weiterhin ist der Alkohol mit 76% unfassbar gut integriert was definitiv extra Punkte verdient auch wenn ich hiervon definitiv keine Flasche bräuchte 😃 sagen wir so: es ist so pervers das es schon wieder gut ist🤣 Mittlerweile bekomm ich Noten von Kirschwasser und Marzipan im Abgang dazu. Heilige scheiße geiles Zeug!!🔥"

    "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."

    "A grenade! The question about the integration of the alcohol at 76% needs to be answered first. It is very well integrated! Astringent on the palate and on the dark Jamaica side. Funky estwr with sour cherry, honey and fleshy spicy notes. Super! The finish is unfortunately not long enough to get any more out of it. Either way, a super piece! Second tasting: +1 point."

    "Once again a remarkable bottling from Plantation. Does not come for me in the spheres of the 2002 Hampden, but these extremely high-proof releases offer aromatically a very impressive spectrum. There are rich tropical fruits, citrus notes, plus rather subtle accompanying aromatics of wood, spice and tart sweetness. The present level at this high alcohol strength and the called, very fair prices actually hardly fits into the current time. I can't help but pay Plantation great respect for this."
