The Tamosi Wiwakalaymay LSO is a distinctive Jamaican rum produced at the Long Pond distillery and bottled by Levy Lane. Distilled from molasses using a double wooden pot still and aged for 17 years, it features a substantial ABV of 68.1%. This low ester rum stands out with an intriguing nose of vanilla, black tea, and a hint of petrol. On the palate, it weaves together potent notes of mint, menthol, and oak alongside subtle undertones of black tea. The long finish is marked by woody bitterness and lingering exotic fruit flavors. It's renowned for its complex integration of high alcohol content with a diverse flavor profile, making it a notable, albeit unconventional choice for rum enthusiasts.

"The nose starts off with a good load of glue, which then gradually gives way to spices, mint and yellow fruit. Very intense in the mouth, slightly astringent and somewhat medicinal. For me, it almost goes in the direction of Clarendon. Slightly bitter finish. The high ABV is well integrated."
"The nose is very restrained... I can faintly filter out delicate sour fruit, some wood and sourdough bread... The palate is quite different. Powerfully oily and heavy, it spreads out. A sweet/sour fresh note, followed by subtly resinous young wood and some spice fills the mouth before it leaves slightly bitter. A good LP, but it doesn't quite convince me"
"#4412 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Notes. Very fresh and intense with nice esters and pineapple. Warm and oily on the palate with a very long finish."
"Wahnsinnig abgefahrener Long Pond bei dem ich blind definitiv eher auf Clarendon getippt hätte. Der Alkohol ist überraschend gut integriert. Aromatisch eine echte 💥 Explosion aus kräftig gebrühtem Schwarztee aromatisiert mit Orangenschalen, dazu schwarzem Pfeffer, viel Menthol und eine gute Ladung dreckigem frisch verschütteten Benzin, sowie überreifen fast schon vergorenen tropischen Früchten. Abgefahrene Nummer, wenn auch sehr ungewöhnlich und nicht was ich von einem Long Pond 2006 erwartet hätte..."
