The story
Long Pond originated as an estate and rum production facility in Trelawny Parish (Jamaica) with earliest attestations in the 18th century; many sources place its origin around 1753. During the 20th century ownership passed through several parties (including Seagram) until becoming part of National Rums of Jamaica (NRJ). For most of its history Long Pond operated primarily as a bulk rum supplier to blenders and brands. The distillery experienced temporary closures (including an environmental shutdown in 2012), was hit by a significant fire in July 2018 and resumed operations with a documented reopening ceremony in June 2022. Since 2021 NRJ has also begun marketing official expressions under the Long Pond name.
Distillation
Double-retort pot still
Ageing
Barrel ageing with an extensive 'barrelling' practice at high percentages (NRJ distillates are traditionally barreled around 70% ABV); many single-cask releases show prolonged tropical maturation.
