Long Pond Plantation Extreme No. 4 CRV 1996
Highly praised as a refined, bourbon‑cask‑driven Long Pond with rich tropical fruit, coconut and vanilla, great balance for 60%, though many note lower esters and price as limiting excitement.
Bourbon and Foursquare fans, and Long Pond lovers who enjoy a mature, wood‑driven, coconut‑vanilla profile with controlled funk at cask strength.

Refined, bourbon‑style Long Pond

The nose is extremely fruity (not at all alcoholic). It's a far cry from the very expressive High ester, closer to the gourmet noses of Foursquare. There's banana, orange and spice all over the place. Attractive. On the palate, it's in line with the nose, rich and powerful with fruit. The fruit salad intensifies as the tasting progresses, with gourmet coconut as the final firework. It's clearly a great success, with a gourmet profile that's very accessible and easy to drink despite the 60%. A rum for pleasure tasting!
I just returned from a luxury tasting I was invited to and I'm actually a bit tipsy this time because all the rums had a high proof. This tasting was Plantation extreme only and this is the first one of the six. This is a great one from Plantation and with its 24 years you get what you expect. I would have liked a bit more fruit and funk though. The longer you leave it in the glass the fruitier it gets. Price to quality is very good.
In der Nase Jamaika. Am Geschmack sehr kräftig und würzig. Abgang schön lang und ausgewogen. Schöner Long Pond aber für den Preis würde ich mir den nicht kaufen. Da gibt es welche die Kosten die Hälfte oder ein Drittel und machen genauso viel Freude.
