CDI Long Pond Jamaica 2003

Most tasters agree this is a light, easy Long Pond, but they split on whether that's a good thing. Fans call it "easy sipping long pond" with kiwi, gooseberry, fresh-cut grass and citrus. Others feel it's watered down at 44% — one flagged "0 complexity and 0 body." Pleasant and gentle rather than the punchy Long Pond funk people expect.

The community says
  • Fresh fruity nose
  • Easy to sip
  • Thin, watery body

Nase: leicht, Kiwi und Stachelbeeren, Weißwein, frisch gemäht Wiese, Fass und Zitrusfrüchte im Hintergrund, Alkohol nicht wahrnehmbar, ich habe keine richtige Idee, eventuell ein low ester Long Pond, von Rest & be thankful gab es da glaube ich welche. Gaumen: zu den bekannten Noten kommt jetzt mehr Würze und Grappa hinzu, Alkohol ca. 54%, ich bin mir recht sicher das es ein Pottstill Jamaica Rum ist, schwanke zwischen low ester Long Pond und Clarendon Nachklang: lang, trocken werdend, blumig, Sehr guter leichter Rum, bin gespannt was das für eine ist. Wenn ich mich festlegen müsste, würde ich Long Pond LSO sagen.

Sehr leichter und langweiliger Long Pond. Für mich fehlt das typische Long Pond profil...

This is a perfect daily rum or to start your adventure of long pond 😜 There‘s 0 complexity and 0 body because it‘s watered down. 😔
