Long Pond Plantation Extreme No. 3 ITP

"WoW Really nice rum from Long Pond. Price to value is actually… out of control. I enjoyed this a lot. Very fruity esters, just right🤤 Finish is very long fruity and oaky(barrel, cocoa)"

"I like it more and more with every tasting."

"A very fruity nose with tropical fruit, yellow fruit, caramel, young wood, leather and old varnished wood. A lively start on the palate, but the fruity aromas rise quickly, accompanied by spices and wood. The finish is long, with fruit and cedar wood (cigar box)."

"Tropically aged low ester LP with a lot of fruit on the nose. In addition to the typical banana in various stages of ripeness, peach, grape, red fruit and dried fruit. A hint of mango on the palate. Also on the palate: some astringency, tannins and bitterness - but still pleasant and in a nice combination with the fruity cognac finish. I Like."

"A lovely Long Pond with a beautiful aromatic palette. The nose starts with light esters and glue, then reveals a lovely basket of tropical fruits (banana, pineapple, citrus) that scent the nostrils. The profile then becomes more caramelized, spicy, woody and buttery, gaining in sweetness but losing a little intensity. The palate returns to pretty exotic fruits (mango, papaya, banana), accompanied by spices (cinnamon, vanilla), caramel and a woodiness that has a slight influence on the final finish. The medicinal touch reveals prominent esters that offer a complex, elegant profile, with a gourmet, creamy mouthfeel. The alcohol is well integrated. The finish is long but much more marked by the cask: cognac, spices, licorice, dark chocolate and raisin contrast with the exuberance of exotic fruit and medicinal funk. The profile is drier but still fragrant. A Long Pond not as extreme as the series suggests, but rather refined, aesthetic and very well mastered."

"Tasting-Runde bei Leo: Klasse fruchtig-süsse Abfüllung"

"Leckerer Low Ester Jamaikaner. In der Nase prägnat Banane, relativ cremig im Mund und im Abgang dann trocken-tanninig. Gute Gesamtkombo, sehr smooth, eckt nirgends an. Erinnert teilweise ein wenig an Cognac. Gute Länge im Abgang."

"Incredibly cool nose of fully ripe tropical fruit, peach, ester and fresh caramel with lemon balm. On the palate, the 22y in the cask come into their own and complement the profile aromatically with cinnamon, red berries, dark caramel, lemon balm and light tannins from the wood, as well as mango Roiboos tea. Very round, dry, not too funky but not too thin either. I really like it, could do with a little less wood but overall really delicious."

"This one is very enjoyable. In that it reminds me somewhat of the 2000 VRWs. While this is more leaning towards darker notes and less fruity, I find it dangerously „sippable“- just as the VRWs. 😁"

"I just picken up this bottle today and put in an order for the HJC and can't wait to get that one for my collection. This ITP is a very well balanced 22 year old Jamaican rum from Long Pond. You may want to add a few drops of water to release the full potential of this rum. Though a bit expensive I still think the cost matches the quality."

"Tasted at the Whisky & Rum festival, the 27th of october, 2023. Plantation had a stand, and had some goodies behind the table! Plenty of flavours due to a rather high estercount, with notes of ripe fruits, oak and molasses"

"Angenehm fruchtig in der Nase und eine frische süße in der Luft wie auf einer Plantage. Im Geschmack weichen die Fruchtnoten dann etwas der Eiche und im Abgang verliert der Rum dann etwas, da der Nachgeschmack im Prinzip nur pelzig und holzig am Gaumen ist und nur wenig Fruchtaromen im Mund hinterlässt."

"Gefällig. Leider schnell wieder vergessen"

"Now, this was tasted after the stce velier 2019. This is nice, even though the ferrand finish did not integrate at all for me. But, this is three points better at almost 4 times the price. In terms of value for money this is a stinker"

"Ein Long Pond der überraschend rund ist und mir persönlich doch sehr gut gefällt. Eine schöne Balance aus fruchtigen Noten und der Holzigkeit des Fasses. Über den Preis der Flasche lässt sich sicherlich streiten."
