How does this rum taste?
Jamaica No. 11 is a limited-edition rum distilled from molasses at Long Pond distillery in Jamaica and bottled by The Colours of Rum. With only 220 bottles available, it is a rare find for rum enthusiasts. Distilled in 2000 and aged for 21 years, this cask strength rum has a 56.2% ABV. Notable aromas include banana, vanilla, and mango with a tropical fruit and sweet undertone. On the palate, it offers flavors of vanilla, banana, and a hint of spice.

Got a sample of this rum for free from RumX. Long Pond is known for its ultra-funky, high-ester style of rum, but this one is a VRW which marks quite low esters. It was pot still distilled 2000 whereafter it was continental aged for 21 years in an ex-rum barrel before bottled in 220 bottles at 56,4%. Overall a very light low esters Long Pond that tastes much better (more) than its aromas.
Nose very restrained. Honeydew melon ,banana and some wood . Alcohol not very present. On the palate alcohol more noticeable but not bad . Banana, honey (melon) pleasant light sweetness . Finish then slightly bitter and a little woody. Not bad but somehow very weak in all.
#4187 This is an OK Long Pond though I would have loved some more kick in the profile. I'd set this one as a light profile Long Pond. Fruity with medium ester and light wood. There is a natural sweetness to it and I like the curtains in the glass. The empty glass has some chocolate and maple to it.
Jamaica No. 8 vs No. 11 vs No. 12 Nose clearly goes to No. 11. very nice basket of fruits and overripe banana. Is this maybe one of the 2000 VRWs vs LPS for the other two? No. 12 is nice with some tropical fruits and spices. No. 8 is dominated by wood and remains sharp even after > 1h in the glas. Taste: 2001 (8) much better on the palate vs on the nose. However, a little thin and unassuming. Not bad, though. 2000 (11) sweet and fruity on the palate as well. Easy going but also quite nice. If anybody knows the mark on this, let me know 🙂 Overall my winner out of the three 1998 (12) also very round and easy going. A little more wood and roasted notes. Feels a little thin and uninspired to me, however.
