    "Simply magnificent. A bottle to have in your bar. A surprising color for its age. An explosion of tropical fruit on all sides, both on the nose and on the palate. Superbly crafted, with great complexity and well-integrated alcohol. I wonder if it even deserves more than 91%."

    "legendärer Tropfen!🇯🇲 eine absolute Explosion an Fruchtaromen und das trotz 24y langer Reifung. vollreife Ananas trifft auf süß saure Himbeeren, dazu gebrannte Mandeln, etwas gesalzenes brioche mit Butterkaramell und flambierten Bananen, sowie kandierten Früchten. Holz Noten die nicht zu dominant sind runden das ganze wunderbar ab. einfach extrem rund, komplex und sehr gut Trinkbar, fast schon süffig! 92er Referenz Hampden!💯⚡🤤"

    "Wow this was a nice surprise. A powerful and intense release and I would have loved to get my hands on a bottle. Intense from nose to finish with nice fruit and esters/glue. Light wood and very good ABV integration. The empty glass is really nice and fruity with some nutts."

    "Brilliant Hampden with little acidity. I like! Slightly spicier and more tart than the Rumclub 1992."
