House Review

Intro:
This is a bottling by Plantation of spirit distilled by Long Pond in Jamaica and aged for 22 years. Bottled at cask strength, this rum is finished for a year in Ferrand barrels. Let's see how it is.
-
Nose:
Sweet pear, mango, brown sugar, papaya. Bright, some copper, pepper, mostly sweet. Faint funk.
-
Taste:
Thin to medium mouth feel. Prickle of heat, but not excessive. Sweet cream, plantain, pepper, nice oak structure, faint astringency.
-
Finish:
Short, but nice. Apple, fruits, stone fruits, cream and pepper.
-
Overall:
This is nice overall. Not mind blowing, but nice. That said, I don't think it's unseating any greats.
