How does this rum taste?
The Jamaican Rum JHK DOK is a distinctive, limited edition spirit from the Hampden distillery, selected and bottled by Thompson Bros. Distilled in 2009 from molasses and aged for 12 years, this rum boasts a robust cask strength ABV of 62.1%. Aromas of esters, fermented notes, and marmalade introduce a rich profile, while flavors of honey and spice dominate the palate. Although generally praised, some find it demanding, with the high alcohol content sometimes overpowering the subtler sweet and fruity notes. Perfect for aficionados seeking bold, funky Hampden character balanced with a hint of woody vanilla. Recommended to let it breathe to fully appreciate its complex flavors.

incredibly mineral and austere Hampden.
A very nice DOK, the cask gives light notes of fresh wood and some vanilla to the typical ester bomb. This makes it a little more moderate overall than I would have expected given the color. This text has 221 characters.
I miss a little the creamy-buttery notes.
Fordernd, bisweilen sogar ein bisschen anstrengend, aber enorm spaßig. Wer braucht schon Eicheneinfluss, wenn er solch ein Destillat haben kann. Das ist nichts, was ich immer im Glas haben muss, aber bisweilen finde ich diese spannende Aromenwelt schon ziemlich beeindruckend und durchaus lecker.
