    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members highlight bright citrus and tropical fruit over vanilla and roasted wood, noting good value for this cask-strength Long Pond VRW. The orange-wine finish is subtle, letting fruity esters and spice show, with some grapefruit bitterness and menthol on the finish. A few reviewers found it less typical and slightly alcohol-forward, yet this 102-bottle release is drawing interest across 44 community reviews.

    Schöner solider long pond. Das orangewein hat recht wenig Einfluss genommen. Dafür kommt er schön fruchtig und intensiv für diese geringe Alkoholstärke. Preis Leistung passt. Klare Kaufempfehlung/trinkemofehlung

    Had the Sedunum bottling. The nose is subtle even if diverse nuances are there. The Orange Wine finish makes the rum very round. Even if I have the impression that the Jamaican notes thereby get into the background. Good trib strength.Good rum that brings some layers of flavor. Fun to drink. Very good PLV.

    While nose and finish are pleasing, the experience on the palate is rather flat and alcohol forwards. Does not meet my expectations for a VRW unfortunately.

    #4213 Looking at the price tag you get a good rum at a decent price. Fruity with nice spices and roasted wood notes. The esters are there but just not a lot of them. The empty glass is nice and has some chocolate and very light licorice.
