    • Complex flavor profile
    • Well-balanced despite high ABV
    • Long, warm finish

    The Jamaica Rum Limited Batch (5th Release) ITP is a distinguished rum crafted in Jamaica's Long Pond distillery and bottled by Schotman’s Barrel Selection. Distilled in 2007 from molasses and aged 16 years in a pot still, this rum is renowned for its estery and tropical fruit notes, accented by wood and caramel on the nose. The palate reveals a complex mix of woody, estery, and fruity qualities, supported by a roasted undertone. At 67% ABV, it's a powerful yet well-balanced libation, with a lingering finish. This limited release, consisting of only 259 bottles, is noted for its quality but also its premium pricing, reflecting the extended tropical aging process.

    "Ein Long Pond mit angenehmen Fasseinflüssen, Würzigkeit und gemäßigten Estern. Der Alkohol ist gut integriert. Im mittellangen Nachklang eine angenehme Note von Bitterorangen. Für mich ein sehr guter Long Pond, der im Glas viel Spaß macht, aber für eine bessere Bewertung als 8.6 Punkte fehlt am Ende des Tages eine Kleinigkeit."

    "Spannender Jamaikaner. Vergleichsweise gezähmt in den Estern (wie bei diesem Mark zu erwarten), dafür aber würzig, kräftig und überaus holzig-röstig. Durchaus mit Säure, aber für mich noch im angenehmen Rahmen. Für die Spitzenbewertung dann aber für mich zu unrund und nicht komplex genug, aber trotzdem eine sehr schöne Abfüllung!"

    "Macht an der Nase gar nicht richtig auf, auch nach längerer Zeit nicht. Aber am Gaumen entschädigt der Rum für die zurückhaltende Nase, da merkt man ihm die lange tropische Reifung an, wunderbar! Auch wenn Long Pond nicht zu meinem bevorzugten Profil gehört, weiß diese Abfüllung doch zu überzeugen."
