The Nectar Long Pond The Nectar Of The Daily Drams Jamaica TECA 2022
Just one year old, yet this Long Pond TECA packs a punch most people don't see coming. Expect a nose full of glue and nail polish, then sour pineapple, green banana and a salty-licorice edge, with vanilla and coconut from the virgin oak taking the sharpest corners off. One taster called it a young rum with real "fougue" — energy that older Long Ponds trade for polish.

The look inside the bottle
How does The Nectar Long Pond The Nectar Of The Daily Drams Jamaica TECA 2022 taste?
Aggregated from 60 community reviews.
Young, funky Long Pond with glue and pineapple Loved by ester chasers for its wild fruit-and-glue intensity at a young age. A few find it too sharp or oddly bitter, and the short cask time shows in a thin body.
Fans of high-ester Jamaican funk who want intensity
Anyone put off by acetone and high ABV

Review by Doctor Luke
Shockingly productive aging for such a young rum. It manages to capture a lot of the beauty of the long aged TECAs from NRJ and Velier for a fraction of the cost.

Disse høj Ester er bare ikke mig … acetone duft ødelægger det bare for mig..

Retasting at Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. This time I got some notes 😊 Nose Intense, ester, faint wood, glue, fruits, overripe, banana, light citrus. Palate Medium intense, faint wood, faint olive, fruits, overripe, light pineapple, light citrus, ester, light glue, faint iodine. Finish Long and warm, faint wood, faint smoke, fruits, light citrus, light polish, ester. This one is still a pretty good release and the price when released was really good. -------------------- #4317 21.10.2023 Whisky Live 2023

Online tasting of various TECA and TECC organized by Mirco. First of all, many thanks for the great split to be able to try them all side by side. Now I had to readjust a few ratings.
Review by Rare Akuma
The aroma is incredibly versatile and eclectic. The nostrils are ambushed with sour pineapple, green kiwi, redcurrant and lime juice. It’s unforgivingly harsh in the sense that the little sweetness that is present can’t possibly stand up to the overwhelming acids. Vanilla and candied fruits take the edges off a bit, but it’s really ginger, green pepper and frankincense that break through the fruits’ dominance. The same trend continues on the palate. Still -admittedly a little less than expected- very sour. However now balanced with green banana and freshly baked sourdough. It’s heavily spiced with salt, pepper and dried ginger. And despite having noticeably less incense, it’s still quite smoky. Only this time campfire smoke and phenol. The finish is phenomenally long as I could taste vanilla incense for over an hour, even after drinking water. On the shorter end there is sour pineapple, vanillapod and medicinal notes, and unfortunately a slight alcohol burn. Tasted this alongside the NOTDD HD <>H 2y, which I liked very much and in hindsight is more rounded. Even so, this LP is still a very strong representative of what a young Jamaican can achieve.
Review by Serge
Next round of the post-tasting of Mirco's LP Tecc/Teca Community Tasting. Just picked the next number. On the nose rather continental with more nail polish/ester. Then more almond/marzipan/wood/fruit on the palate. Possibly a shorter-aged high ester in a small cask with lots of wood exchange à la RDL?

Funky and intense. For thrill-seekers. They'll be delighted.

Too sharp!
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
A real little scumbag, not the most elegant or complex, but completely wild!
Review by Martin Švojgr
Something bothers me, a strange bitterness.
Review by DomM
The Virgin Oak (my guess) takes off the edges quite well. A lot of coconuts and vanilla alongside the high ester profile. Combination of the TECA fruitiness and the oak notes make a pleasant combination. Quite tasty.
Review by Thunderbird
MircosBlind-Tasting TECA/TECC Nr.4: Diese Abfüllung hätte ich niemals nach Long Pond verortet… dafür ist er zu süss und mit einer ausgeprägten Kokosnuss-Note. Er hat eher Aromen eines Belizes mit LP-Finish. Das ist nicht mein Geschmack
Review by Leo Krüper
Unfortunately very little finish due to its young age. Otherwise, this is a beautiful LP with a strong character.
Review by Sebastian.W
Enjoying the last drops of this bottle... A nice high ester Jamaican. It is fruity, spicy and has a very enjoyable sweetness to it which reminds me of marzipan. It also goes very well in a daiquiri, 15-30ml is enough.
Review by Roman Lelek
The scent mixes nail polish with fruit and leather. On the palate, I detect tannins mixed with the sweetness of sugar cane...the taste is quite sharp and prickly. The finish is short, dry and leathery... For me an interesting sample, I would get a bottle and enjoy it when I want to taste something different, unusual, unusual..than like the rum I normally drink.
Review by Steffmaus🇩🇰
"Drinking rum before 11 am, doesn't make you alcoholic, it makes you a pirate". It's currently 10:44, got home from an on-call and now: rum. Intense in the nose, with ester, salty licorice and a glue-like scent, and notes of tropical fruits, varnish, wood and hints of dark chocolate
Review by Basti
Tasted blind as part of the Long Pond TECA/TECC community tasting: The barrel influence is clearly noticeable here. This makes it a little more relaxed to drink. Woody aromas, some coconut, vanilla and other spices are added.
