Hampden Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 18 Treasure Cask Jamaica HLCF 1992

Einer der besten und vor allem ausgewogendsten Hampdens, die ich je im Glas gehabt habe. Jedes erste Glas schreit laut nach einem zweiten. Ggf. auch nach einem weiteren. Tolles Aroma, viel Banane und sehr schöner, aber dezenter Rauch. Mit einem Satz: Viel besser geht es nicht.

What a lovely interpretation of Jamaica. One of the best Jamaicans I have had in a very long time. A definite must try if you like the funkiness of Jamaica.

Give. Me. Ester. This is what a Hampden must taste like. Compared to the Nobilis 1992 HLCF a bit rounder and better integrated alcohol (almost perfect).

Hervorragender Hampden …. Komplex und mit perfekt eingebundenem Alkohol! Funky und vielschichtig mit langem Abgang… genauso muss er sein 👍🏻

Blind Tasting,

New Hampden 1992 reference. Beats the 24-year-old CDI by a very narrow margin. Exceptionally good!

Edit: this was one of my first really, really good Jamaicans. Unfortunately I no longer have a bottle, but the sample I got again will be drunk on a special day. Simply superb. A truly round, creamy, multi-layered taste experience. That's all I need to say. My new front runner in my ranking.

Just shut up and enjoy for gods sake 😍there will probably be a time when something like this will no longer be affordable 😅

Update after blind tasting yesterday. Further a class rum. Have on the palate now still yogurt and marzipan made out. The fun but of course according to the age he lets it go a little quieter. But that's exactly what you want here.what ne nose, the full Jamaica dröhnung. on the palate then clearly more wood. but incredibly complex and funky, the alcohol in addition prima integrated. Finish warm and long.

Very fruity but also quite a lot of wood. Very nice creamy mouthfeel. Great Hampden

Hammer🔨! I like it very much. Straightforward, accessible, very round and yet complex and versatile. Alcohol very nicely integrated.

#1 RumXHighE(a)ster weeks: Blind tasting: Hampden approx. 10year tropical aging 60-65% 600-800 gr/hlpa This is a hampden i haven‘t tried before, for sure. Result: I totally missed the aging, but the rest was quite good 👍🏻 Btw A very good hampden, with a high impact of esters. The alcohol is well noted from the start to the end. The barrel/aging isn‘t well noted, because the fruity notes and esters a overwhelming (in a good way 😜).

1. Sample der Easter-Edition. Toller Rum. Gleich zu Beginn kommen sofort gelbe Früchte in die Nase. Mirabellen, Banane, Ananas. Am Gaumen dominieren ebenfalls Früchte. Ester eher dezent. Dafür schöne Noten von Honig und Marzipan. Für mich ein Top-Hampden!

Sehr gut integrierter Alkohol…gefällt mir persönlich ein wenig besser als der Nobilis 92.

Tropical fruits dominate the nose. Ripe mango and pineapple, esters, caramel, vanilla and a light floral note. Also quite fruity and round on the palate. The alcohol is perfectly integrated. Edit: Had the edge in the blind tasting with Rum Nation 1992 HLCF (RX1413) and CDI 1992 HLCF (RX8472).
