Long Pond Kill Devil Jamaica 2005
Overripe mango, toffee and a little glue meet roasted coconut and oaky tannin in this 16-year Long Pond from Hunter Laing. Tasters find vanilla, caramel and dark chocolate under the esters, with a fruity sweetness up front. At 67% it runs hot, and most agree the last bit of complexity isn't there — good, but not a wow.
The community says- Tropical ester fruit
- Vanilla and toffee
- Alcoholic heat

How does Long Pond Kill Devil Jamaica 2005 taste?
Aggregated from 10 community reviews.
Fruity, hot Long Pond with toffee and esters Tropical esters, vanilla and oak in a sweetish frame that most enjoy. The catch: 67% makes it alcoholic, and several say it's nice rather than memorable.

Review by Oliver
Still a bit beastly.
Review by Jakob
Sweet basic structure, but not without force. Vanilla and wood, which enter into a pleasant interplay with the fruit flavors. The final complexity is missing, but it remains an alcoholic-intense, but still good drinkable rum.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Could be an ITP or VRW... Light ester and glue notes meet slightly overripe and fermented mango, toasted coconut chips, sour bitter cocoa nibs and some green pepper and toffee with medium oak tannins. Overall also quite alcoholic but still drinkable. Not bad but not a highlight either.
Review by Joël
Voll ok für 67%, sind gut integriert. Gefällt mir, eine Flasche bräuchte ich aber nicht.
