Schotman Jamaica Rum 16 Years
Schotman
This release is a well-balanced Long Pond that will bring every rum lover into ecstasy. The Long Pond Distillery was founded in 1753 and is known for its powerful funkiness, which results from the use of 100% molasses, the long fermentation period, and the use of its own yeast. Only a small portion of Long Pond rum production ends up on the market for private bottlers. The scent is unmistakably Jamaican funkiness and tropical fruit. With an ester content of ITP 90-120, it brings out flavours such as banana, pineapple, coconut, and oak, but without the astringency of tannin, a hint of eucalyptus, and even some nutty flavours. The aftertaste is full and long. Add a little water so the rum opens up and the train of Flavours happily passes by again. Special thanks to Richard.
