Long Pond RA Jamaica Rum VRW 2000
Highly praised Long Pond: buttery esters, ripe pineapple and banana, marzipan and gentle wood in a creamy, well-balanced package. Characterful yet relaxed Jamaica that many enjoy as a daily sipper.
Fans of Jamaican funk who enjoy a round, creamy profile with pineapple, banana and marzipan rather than an aggressive ester bomb; great for experienced drinkers wanting a relaxed Long Pond sipper.

How does this rum taste?
Creamy, relaxed Long Pond funk
If you enjoy balanced Hampden or softer Long Ponds, this hits a sweet spot: real Jamaican character, plenty of fruit and esters, but dialled into a creamy, easy-sipping style.
Beginners sensitive to 55% ABV, hunters of ultra-funky high-ester Long Ponds, or those who dislike light bitterness and drier barrel notes in the finish.

Creamy with nice spice and pastry notes. Rather restrained fruitiness and little funk. Great Long Pond - but I personally lack a bit of effervescence.
Very nice buttery esters, fermented fruit and subtle sweetness on the nose. Honey sweetness on the palate at first, then some buttery esters, young wood and minimal allspice. Creamy and soft on the palate. ABV at a good drinking strength. The finish is medium long with a little more spice and tannins. Re-tasting at Dr. Django: Sticking with my assessment, but lowering it from 9.0 to 8.9
Hazelnut notes. Otherwise very spicy. We didn't give the rum enough time in the tasting. And we already had too much beforehand.
Ein gediegener, cremiger, fruchtiger easy Sipper Long Pond von Rum Artesanal. Das VRW Mark ist grandios, zeigt sich hier aber sehr verhalten. Dieser Rum ist sehr lecker aber im Vergleich mit den Long Ponds aus 2005 (Rom Deluxe oder Habitation) sind das schon Welten.
