How does this rum taste?
Rum Sponge No. 21A by Decadent Drinks LTD is a 22-year-old limited release from Long Pond Distillery, Jamaica. Distilled from molasses in 2000 and bottled at cask strength (49.6% ABV), it exhibits classic Jamaican ester notes with a woody, roasted profile. Users appreciate its complex aroma of overripe bananas and cappuccino, though some find it smoother and less intense than expected. It delivers a balanced taste with tropical fruits, spices, and a hint of caramel. While praised for its integration of alcohol and nuanced flavors, a few suggest a higher ABV for more punch. Overall, it offers a distinct Jamaican rum experience.

More classically Jamaican than its brother from Clarendon, offering a nice contrast. Still a slightly gentler take on Jamaica than we’ve seen in the past.
Really nice and unusual Long Pond! Cappuccino and milk chocolate meets overripe bananas, tart pineapple and some olive brine. Exciting number! Despite the rather low alcohol content surprisingly intense and complex!
C’est très très bon, mais clairement, ça manque de watts. Belle harmonie entre les fruits compotés, le cappuccino et le chocolat, avec la petite touche de caramel / vanille qui vont bien 😍 ça se boit tout seul. Par contre un peu déçu pour la longueur en bouche
#4216 This ibe is better than its brother from Clarendon but I would again have loved a higher ABV. Fruity with some esters and wood all in good balance. Draws very nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass has some herbs and spices.
