    In this long pond the 17 years of aging are all felt! Darker than others I have tasted, very important the spicy and bitter part on the palate to then get to a very pleasant finish! It does not present the usual moldy and fermented note that I found in all the other rums from this distillery!

    Alcohol integration is not the best on the nose and alcohol bites a bit. However, the palate is absolutely amazing with round notes like coconut, vanilla, almond and some funkyness brought by tropical fruits and some sour candies. Beautiful ! Rums are meant to be sipped afterall 😁

    Good long pond. Could be tropically matured. More on the astringent side.
