AVERAGE VALUE
Introducing the Long Pond 2005 "The Whisky Jury" - a remarkable, 15-year-old Jamaican rum, distilled in 2005 at the Long Pond distillery from molasses and bottled by independent bottler The Whisky Jury. With a robust ABV of 62.1% and limited to just 290 bottles, this cask strength gem is a must-try for rum enthusiasts.

sets itself apart again clearly from the 2000 RA and whiskey jury! Somehow a concentrate of young wood and cherry liqueur, garnished with a few drops of iodine. On the palate candied fruit and young wood, which also so accompanies the finish.

Richtig guter Long Pond! Eher auf der bitteren Seite. Tropisch gereift?!

Nez très discret pour moi. Bouche beaucoup plus expressive. Un boisé ciselé, de la colle, de la mangue. C'est chaud. Esterisé. Très agréable. Finale pas si longue que je l'aurais pensé. Toujours sur le bois, les esters. C'est à la fois puissant et maîtrisé. Complexe et rond. Très cool.

Dégusté il y a un moment je reprends mes notes. C'est super. La Jamaïque comme j'aime, pas la bombe d'ester du genre white spirit dilué mais une fantastique gourmandise. Excellent.

Wahnsinnig geiler Long pond. Ananas-Carpaccio mit Minze, Marillenknödel, Butterbrösel und Vanillesauce sowie Bergamot zitrusabrieb, sowie etwas Kaffee und dunkle Schokolade mit schöner Ester Funkyness im Abgang! Extrem rund und schön. Macht richtig Spaß! Könnte nur minimal weniger bitter sein dann wären es 90+ Punkte

Ein sehr eleganter, süffiger beeindruckender Rum… er weiß von der ersten Sekunde an zu gefallen… der Alkohol ist perfekt eingebunden und trägt das Aroma sehr angenehm von leichter Süße bis zum zurückhaltendem frischen Holzeinschlag! Extrem lecker

Schöne Nase, überfordert nicht, würzig, Ester, junges Holz, Karamell, Minze, Mandel, Zitrusfrüchte! Gefällt mir gut. Am Gaumen setzt sich die Würze fort, Holz, Eukalyptus, samtig und vollmundig, Zitrusfrüchte und eine gewisse Süße von Mandel, Kokosnuss und Karamell! Abgang junges Holz, Johannisbeere, Kaffe, samtig/pelzig aber angenehm! Toller, runder tropischer Long Pond ohne große Kanten und Ecken.

sehr süffiger LP ...nach 30min im Glas macht er schön auf ...es kommt Pfirsich und etwas Kirsche durch ...gefällt mir gut vorallem weil er nicht so Holzig ist.
