How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its baked banana, spice and dry oak balance; critics find it sharp, bitter and weak for a Long Pond. Consensus: solid, characterful yet divisive single cask for experienced drinkers.
If you like drier, wood‑forward Clarendon or other low‑ester Jamaicans, this is a nice side step: Long Pond on paper, but drinks more like a lean, tannic Clarendon experiment.
Beginners, sweetness-seekers, and anyone sensitive to bitterness or sharper alcohol integration, or expecting a classic, estery Long Pond flavor bomb.

Flavors of ripe banana, salted pistachios, licorice, allspice, Szechuan pepper and fresh ginger. Nuts-and-fruit milk chocolate dominates the finish, which is long and smooth
Unusual long pond. Surprisingly bitter and woody, yet a nice banana, and honey note with well integrated tannins and a slight saltiness, as well as some dried fig. Had I rather tasted undiluted, which would certainly have more potential. Nevertheless, tasty and harmonious overall.
Für einen Long Pond ein bißchen schwach. Trotz des niedrigen ABV finde ich den Alkohol nicht gut eingebunden. Im Abgang ist er leider relativ kurz. Danke an das RumX Team für die Verlosung und natürlich Perola fürs bereitstellen der Samples.
Cross-Tasting mit sieben Abfüllungen von Royal Cane. Trinkbar, aber keine Offenbarung. Insgesamt hat mich auch keine der Abfüllungen überzeugt.
