How does this rum taste?
Community loves the creamy, fruity ester profile and balance at cask strength; minor critiques point to a light nose and some woody bitterness. Overall seen as a top Long Pond 2005 release.
If you enjoy Long Pond 2005 vintages or balanced Jamaican funk, this cask gives you big esters, fruit and wood in a controlled, creamy package that really rewards slow sipping.
Beginners or those sensitive to 62% ABV, drinkers who dislike woody bitterness or drier finishes, and anyone looking for an easygoing, sweet sipper.

09.07.2021 Attended a nice tasting arranged by a friend of mine. Notes Intense, light wood, ester, varnish, fruity, overripe, light mint, light tobacco, Palate Intense, warm, wood, ester, light citrus, anise, faint vegetal, light glue, faint nutts. Finish Very long and warm, wood, light glue, light nutts, light citrus.
Perfektní long pond. Nos je na long pondy spíše slabší, přesto nezapře sirupové tóny lepidla, estery a kandované ovoce. V ústech potom krásný komolexní rum, se smetanovou hladkostí, perfektně integrovaným alkoholem, náznakem koření a ovoce. Přijemný závěr. Další ZN ( znovu nalej!) rum.
Tasted a while ago, I'm going back over my notes. It's great. Jamaica as I like it, not the ester bomb of the diluted white spirit type, but a fantastic delicacy. Excellent.
The fruitiness and the focus of this one just blew me away!
