#5850 11.10.2025 Visiting the Whisky Live Hamburg 2025 event. It was the first of its kind and went off pretty well. They still have to learn a lot about running an event like this. People were allowed to bring backpacks and even cabin bags to the event and that is a problem in my mind. This was the last tasting of the event and I'm happy it was. This is a bomb of an LSO Mark. Fruity, spices and wood marries perfectly with the ABV. The finish is like forever even after drinking water.
Nose: very balanced, slightly fresh, sticky, hint of sweetness, Palate: boooooooommm! The rum coats the entire mouth with aromas! Fruity and sweet at the beginning, then the spectacle turns into a cask-heavy rum. Finish: the transition is perfectly smooth, at the end tannins and slight bitterness dominate, but glue and tropical fruits keep flashing up! What a rum! The nose barely gives a hint of what's in the glass! The barrel-heavy finish is limited. In addition, excellently integrated alcohol! Excellent!
An incredible LongPond. 70%??? Never in my life, alcohol perfectly integrated, incredibly intense and complex. Great interplay of wood, spices and some herbs. The finish doesn't want to end. I am really enthusiastic about this bottling.
I am surprised! I would guess a high proportion of tropical maturation! Really good!
