An amazing sipper that has had a cask from 1977 added to it. Only 800 bottles came out of this blend, but what a blend! I'm pretty sure that this rum will do really well with a nice Cuban cigar. This is a smooth well balanced rum that also is a beast to sy the least. Could have benefitted from a bit higher proof. The price is very high, but fair for such a nice rum.

tropical fruits, spice hints, combined with Sherry character(LPCH is same). Nice light Long Pond, again my favourite blend, a hint of sherry's finishing through the barrel adds to the wine's luster.

geiler stoff grundsätzlich aber echt schade warum man da noch sowas edles 6 Jahre in sherry Fässer stecken muss. leider auch relativ schnell weg und nicht sonderlich präsent. Sherry dominiert leider größtenteils...
