Long Pond S.B.S Jamaica (Single Origin Rum) TECC 2022
Fans love the intense ester nose and wild tropical fruit; critics find it sharp, chemical and tiring neat. Emerging consensus: rough as a sipper, excellent character rum for cocktails.
Fans of high-ester Jamaican funk who want a bold, unaged Long Pond for Daiquiris and tiki drinks rather than gentle sipping.

How does this rum taste?
Wild Long Pond funk bomb mixer
If you enjoy raw Long Pond or Hampden white rums, this gives you even more ester punch and cocktail power—but it’s too wild for most people as a relaxed sipper.
Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or anyone who dislikes solventy, grassy Jamaica funk and prefers soft, sweet, easygoing rums.

Opposite of TECA here softer smell but sharper taste
Ugh... Enough is enough... You immediately recognize Jamaica's high ester markers. But that's all we know. The result is something very chemical-looking, which can only be used to flavor other things. Not for drinking neat. For me, pure pleasure is a long way off....
Night tasting of the TECC/TECA Community Tastings by Mirco. Today: the three unaged ones. As expected with the two Marks, the rums are not entirely dissimilar and all the expected markers are there 😉 Nose: Rum 1 most pastry/bacon, rum 2 more fruity, rum 3 most fermented. Favortite: Rum 1, then 3 then 2 Palate: Rum 1 the warmest and thickest, rum 2 more stone fruit, rum 3 very dry. For my taste, 1> 2 > 3 applies here Overall, 1 is clearly the best for me, then 3 and 2 at the end - but without much distance. All delicious. Resolution: Rum1 = rx13569 SBS Origins TECA Rum 2 = rx13378 SBS Origins TECC Rum 3 = rx12601 Warehouse#1 TECA
Tasted blind as part of the Long Pond TECA/TECC community tasting: Similar to the 1423 TECA, but here not quite as many herbal flavors, but something musty and fermented fruit. Also belongs more in the blender category.
