How does this rum taste?
Most love its complex, old-school Long Pond profile with buttery tropical fruit and balanced funk. Critics find it a bit too diluted and calm. Consensus: a top-tier, rare, low-ester classic.
If you enjoy balanced Long Pond or older Silver Seal Jamaicans, this gives you classic funky markers in a smoother, low-ester, 50% package that still rewards focused sipping.
Beginners expecting sweet, easy rum or funk hunters chasing ultra high-ester, cask-strength Jamaican hammers.

Retasting with the RumX guys. --------- This is another rum from heaven and a typical Jamaica style rum. If you like Silver Seal rum you're considered a rum nerd 😉 This bottle is hard to get your hands on and if you're offered a sampler then you should have a go.
A Long Pond I would also like to have in my collection, despite thewenigen percentages still very intense and classic
Woah, good stuff! Powerful, intense, yet balanced. Slight bitter notes, dark chocolate, great complexity. Just great!
Absolutely awesome Long pond! Thanks Emil for the opportunity!
