How does this rum taste?
RumX members love the massive high-ester funk: glue, solvent and nail polish wrapped around overripe pineapple, mango and banana. The palate is sweet, fruity and intense with wood, spice and hints of smoke/meaty notes, finishing very long. While 62.5% and astringent for some, it’s balanced after a good airing. Highly rated by 188 reviewers, this limited 3325-bottle 2007 Long Pond TECC from Velier stands out.

The full load of esters in the nose: glue, solvent, marzipan, pineapple... some barrel and spice...wow On the palate, a strong astringent acidic note and, if I may say so, a taste of marijuana (even after several sips I stick with it and no, I'm clean ;-) )! This is followed by passion fruit and citrus fruits, which then turn into a woody note...and some aniseed. The finish is long, woody and dry... a very unusual and complex rum... it really picked me up Edit: At Mirco's blind tasting TECA/TECC in the glass again...and I'm still thrilled. Good that I still have reserves of the NRJ bottlings 😎
Probably the best Long Pond I've ever tasted. An exceptional aromatic power in the nose, whether it is for the famous notes of esters, glue, solvent and varnish, the pastry flavors, the very tasty fruity side or the light spices, it is an olfactory delight. On the palate, we find a funky, powerful, intense, complex rum, but above all of an extreme roundness and elegance, carried by the esters and the glue, the ripe tropical fruits and the spicy and woody notes. The rum is also very dry, the tannins make themselves felt, but it is not unpleasant. The finish, of great length, continues on the same framework with smoky notes, almost meat, leather and chocolate. A greedy, aromatic and simply incredible rum.
In fact pure one of my favorites... also compared to the top Hampdens. More fruit, complexity and glue, but little pastry and marzipanFind I pure actually great. Just for the first time (in conjunction with my high end counterpart: skeleton 2000) in May Tai, and there it was interesting but not delicious. The sweet pastry and marzipan of Hampdens make the difference hereTherefore perhaps deductions in the B grade, but still world class solo
More ester is hardly possible. This rum is so intense that it lingers on the palate for hours afterwards. Definitely not a rum for every day. I always enjoy it, although there are more balanced rums from Long Pond.
