This particular bottle was selected from the renowned Long Pond distillery in Jamaica and aged for 20 years, with 16 years spent in ex-Bourbon barrels in Jamaica and an additional 4 years in Charente in ex-Ferrand barrels. With a limited release of 550 bottles, this rum boasts an ABV of 52.1% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. The rum reveals a low ester content of 191g/hlpa, contributing to its fruity and fresh aroma that encompasses notes of pear, strawberry, mango, and pineapple. On the palate, the rum continues to deliver a fruity experience accentuated by tropical fruit notes, a touch of greenery, and a light woodiness.

With a price tag of around 250€ and limited availability, this exclusive rum delivers a distinct and enjoyable Jamaican rum experience for those fortunate enough to obtain a bottle.
