Introducing the ImpEx 2005 Long Pond Jamaica VRW 15yo, a masterpiece of rum-making that embodies the rich heritage and craftsmanship of Jamaica's Long Pond Distillery. Aged for 15 years, this exquisite rum was distilled in 2005 and bottled at an impressive 52.2% ABV. Only 304 bottles were produced, making this an exclusive addition to any connoisseur's collection. The Long Pond distillery, renowned for its complex and robust rums, has outdone itself with this limited edition. The rum offers an intricate and nuanced profile that tantalizes the senses from the nose to the finish. On the nose, you'll discover a captivating blend of russet apple, wood glue, pastry crust, sweet oak, and leaf duff. As you savor this rum, your palate will be treated to a medley of overripe fruits, rotten apple, light honey, and elderflower. The finish is elegantly sweet, featuring notes of crème brûlée, autumn leaves, custard, yogurt, sweet fruits, grapes, and a hint of cardamom. This rum is lighter than some other tropically-aged Long Pond expressions, but maintains a depth and complexity that is truly remarkable. The dominant note of overripe apple, reminiscent of fruit rotting on the orchard floor, is particularly enchanting. It harmonizes beautifully with the drier wood tannins and caramel undertones. Rated at 73/100, this rum is a testament to the exceptional quality and distinctive character of Long Pond rums.
