The Compagnie des Indes 2003 Jamaica Long Pond 12yo is a refined rum distilled in 2003 from molasses using a traditional pot still at the Long Pond distillery in Jamaica. Aged for 12 years, this rum boasts an ABV of 44% and comes in a 700ml bottle. It presents a fruity and mineral aroma with notes of yellow fruits and a fresh alcoholic scent. The palate reveals flavors of banana, sweetness, and fruitiness with a thin and sharp character, making it a delightful and gourmet Jamaican rum. The nose is complex with mature banana, solvent, cologne, vanilla, and cake notes. The palate is dry and less sweet than the aroma suggests, maintaining a balanced alcohol level. The finish is relatively long, with grilled and baked notes becoming more prominent and dominating the spices. This rum is bottled from a single cask, as evidenced by the cask number and bottle number on the label. The color is remarkably light for a 12-year-old rum, indicating that no caramel has been added—a testament to Compagnie des Indes' commitment to natural rums without coloring agents. This rum is an excellent introduction to Long Pond rums and is perfect for easy sipping. Some reviewers have noted that it may be too watery for their preference, but overall, it offers a unique and enjoyable tasting experience for rum enthusiasts.
