    Our Viking friends have selected a fine cask from Long Pond: this long-fermented molasses rum (3 days) was distilled in 2000 on an ITP-marked still (John Dore) (60-120 g/hlpa ester content at the time of distillation, as it is much higher at bottling), matured for 23 years under the Jamaican sun in Ex-Bourbon casks, followed by 2 years of continental ageing in France in Ex-Fût de Cognac. To be bottled in 2020 in 62.6% BDF, 608 units for Sweden. No big surprises here: the typical Jamaican solvents are immediately apparent on the nose. But the tropical fruit salad (pineapple-mango) soon makes its appearance. The nose is very elegant, with a touch of honey. The whole is very pleasant, with hints of light spices and wood. On the palate, it's in the same vein as the nose, very fruity, again with tropical fruits and grapes. It's very expressive and balanced, with a gentle woodiness. The 60% are perfectly blended. Nice length, more on the coffee, which fades pleasantly over time. No doubt about it, this is a fine Jamaican. It's perfectly balanced, a pleasure to savor and a pleasure to savor. But at the same time, it's too conventional, lacking the funkiness typical of this destination. You'd expect a bit more from a restaurant of this standing (not far from €300 a keel!). But in any case, the bottle's level will go down quickly, too quickly...

    After a month without alcohol, I thought it would be nice to taste something special at the beginning of my birthday weekend. I think it's pretty good, but have certainly had tastier things before. The dry and woody aspect predominates the most for me. The nose makes you expect more, but the taste can't quite live up to it.

    Un joli Itp assez classique du genre. Leger solvant, mangue trop mûre belle gourmandise etc. Manque un peu d’expressivité au nez peut être. L’alcool est assez présent sans être trop dérangeant. C’est vraiment sympa mais ça ne vaut pas trop son prix surtout à l’époque
