    26.01.2013 Had a nice meet up with other nerds at this old hotel. Afterwards some played at the Casino. Notes Light to medium dark colour. Nose Light wood, faint smoke, fruity, citrus, ester. Palate Warm, wood, light roasted, fruity, pineapple, citrus, ester. Finish Medium long, wood, faint smoke, dried fruit, pineapple.

    Recht ungewöhnlicher LP....taugt mir nicht so.. ungewöhnlich süß und hat was von verbranntem Plastik. Der 86er ist hier definitiv die weitaus bessere Wahl. Trifft leider so gar nicht meinen Geschmack.

    Verkostung aus einer halbvollen Flasche in einer Raucherkneipe. Bin verwirrt: War da jetzt wirklich ein Long Pond im Glas? Roch und schmeckte so gar nicht nach Jamaica, geschweige denn nach Long Pond. War eher auf der süßen Seite angesiedelt, Alkohol phantastisch eingebunden. Begleiterin meinte: Rum wirkt wie parfümiert, wie eine Substanz aus einem DDR-Frisiersalon. Ich meine einfach nur: Überraschend, aber süffig. Mit leider viel zu kurzem Abgang.
