How does this rum taste?
- Rich and harmonious blend
- Complex woody notes
- Well-integrated alcohol
Plantation Extreme No. 4 CRV is a remarkable rum from the Long Pond distillery in Jamaica, bottled by Maison Ferrand. Distilled in 1996 and aged for 24 years, this limited edition features a robust 60.3% ABV. Noted for its woody aroma with hints of glue, vanilla, and tropical fruits, its taste follows with a complex blend of wood, toasted cocoa, and vanilla. While some users find its bourbon cask influence prominent, others appreciate its harmonious mix of aging and fruitiness. Though praised for its Long Pond signature, it's less ester-heavy than expected, which some connoisseurs find disappointing. Overall, this rare release is both a testament to high-quality rum craftsmanship and a polarizing choice among enthusiasts.

"Very good Long Pond profile but not so expressive and Extreme afterall."
"Remindes me of a (high quality) column still rum tbh. It is definitely a high quality, well aged rum. However, the profile is very bourbon cask forward andro me just not very exciting overall."
"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. "
"Classic Long Pond in the nose, the 60% abv is also noticeable. In mouth it‘s more rounder, delicious, fruitier. Really hamonious mix of aging, wood, alcohol. Finish is in line with other long ponds. Nonetheless I missed something (non ester?!?). The alcohol is integrated very well. Price tag is too high."
