The Plantation 1996 Long Pond ITP & HJC Jamaica Single Cask No. 5 is a splendid 23-year-old rum, distilled in 1996 at the prestigious Long Pond distillery in Jamaica. Carefully crafted from molasses with a pot still and finished in Rye Whiskey casks, this gem was bottled by Maison Ferrand in 2020, offering a unique blend of characteristics that make it truly exceptional. With an ABV of 49.1%, and available in a limited edition of only 144 bottles, this rare treasure is a must-have for rum aficionados. The nose reveals rich, woody, and tropical fruit aromas, with ester, banana, and pineapple scents adding to its complexity. The palate is greeted by a delightful, funky mix of tropical fruits, woodiness, and peppery undertones, culminating in a finish that is woody, dry, and spicy with hints of caramel and roasted notes. Highly praised for its unique character, balance, and complexity, the Rye Whiskey finish adds a distinct identity that sets it apart from others in the market.
