Long Pond Plantation Jamaica (Luxembourgish Cask Selection) VRW 2009
Sipped neat at 53%, this Long Pond leads with esters, solvent and a whiff of rubber, then swings into orange peel, tropical fruit and roasted, spicy oak. The orange-wine cask is the twist here — several members feared it'd dominate and were relieved it didn't. One taster pegs it as a cigar companion, and that fits: the wood and tobacco run deep.

Aggregated from 15 community reviews.
Ester-driven Long Pond with an orange-wine twist A well-liked, unusual Long Pond — the strong cask influence works for most, though a couple wish the palate hit harder. The bitter-orange finish splits opinion.

Review by Skyfly
Long Pond mit sehr starkem Fasseinfluss (Orangewein), der in diesem Fall jedoch passt. Von Nase bis Abgang sind Junges Holz und Ester präsent. Daneben noch Gewürze und ganz dezente Fruchtnoten. Kein Knaller, aber auch nicht schlecht. Super PLV
