Trelawny White DOK

What to say... Except that it is a bomb not to put in the hands of anyone. This bottle is a public danger that it is necessary to taste for the lovers of high esters. Be careful not to burn your throat on a too big sip

What a rum! Here is Hampden in all its splendor! The fruits of the distillery are well present (Banana / Pineapple / Mango / Sour cherry / Strawberry), a huge empyreumatic side due to the esters does not calm the beast (Copper / Rubber / Smoke / Tar / Solvent...).It is spicy in the Jam way (Clove / Nutmeg / Cumin / Pepper (chilli) / Cinnamon).the absence of wood brings us a nice vegetal side as well as a nice freshness (Licorice / Citrus / Sap / Green / Hay / The (green / bergamot)).it is also greedy and pastry Cream / Brioche.

A rum of very high intensity, in the nose and even more in mouth. The phenols are particularly present and the long finish on red fruits is very pleasant.

Ladies and gentlemen..this is truly a little gem. Although the ABV might be frightening, it is actually very well integrated and all that alcohol dramatically enhances all the wonderful flavors that this rum brings..funk banana peel, pineapple, orange zeist, then rocky minerals, lots of flowers, medicine, pencil eraser. It gradually evolves into grass, fresh bitter almonds with a pinch of green pepper and lastly some green tea. Water is mandatory to enhance those fruity flavors (mango and papaya also come through), also making the rum a little bit more astringent. Amazing !

In the category of "who's got the highest alcohol content?" this rum takes pride of place. The nose is an explosion of fruity and phenolic aromas, with fermented, medicinal, rubbery notes, bordering on the metallic. You get the sense that this is no joke. On the palate, it's a real revelation. The integration of the alcohol is quite a feat. The concentration of phenolic flavors (esters, solvents) and tropical fruit is at its peak, but a surprising hint of smokiness enhances the whole. The rum is at once very astringent, very suave and aromatic. The finish is very long, largely captured by tannins, a form of bitterness, funky, medicinal and fermented notes. A bluffing, innovative and captivating rum, to be savored by nano-gorged. The quality/price ratio is questionable for an unaged rum, but the experience, though disconcerting, is well worth the detour to be convinced.

A bomb, concentrated funk, overripe pineapple especially, solvent and also Abruzzese goat cheese made by my friends. Mouth warm and soft

Edit: killer Daiquiri Vergleich zwischen den zwei ABV Bomben von Romdeluxe. Was soll ich sagen, einen großen Schluck braucht man von beiden nicht nehmen. Wahrlich sind beide absolute Esterexplosionen. Irgendwann verliert man den Überblick was man alles an Geruch-und Geschmacksrichtungen entdeckt hat. Nach zwei bis dreimal hin und her probiert, kann ich leider vor lauter Geschmacksexplosionen nichts mehr wirklich unterscheiden. Fazit beide haben Charme und es gibt für mich keinen wirklichen Favoriten.

#4293 07.10.2023 this was a 7 hour long event with 3 friends and it was a nice day. This was the last one before mea ing and what a way to end the day. Love these intense ester rums, especially as the last one where your palate has been prepared for it. Fruity and earthy with lots of esters. Super long finish and even after getting home the palate still has the flavours.

Amazing stuff. The first few drops were extremely warm in my mouth and loaded with funk. After that the rum revealed a very fruity profile which I appreciated a lot. An intense ester bomb with a lot of fruit that totally took me by surprise. I need to find a sample of this… 😀

A real firecracker! The nose is still relatively restrained but on the palate it becomes clear what is going on here: Jamaica funk pure! The rum conquers every corner in the mouth and lingers forever!crass stuff and excellent for rum balls and as a kick in the cocktail.

... Hampden, legendarni jamajska destilerka, ktera krome rumu produkuje take alkohol do parfemu. Ve vsech rumech z teto destilerky ucitite divoke estery, po kterych cely vas organizmus nasakne vuni zluteho tropickeho ovoce - manga, papaji, anansu, broskvi. Jeden z rumu, ktere "must try before die"

Absolute rocket fuel. For the strength but surprisingly drinkable and wonderfully fruity...

Zajímavá zkušenost, ve vůni relativně klasický Hampden, v chuti brutální. Doporučuju k vyzkoušení.

Extremely good DOK! I'd love to try it in a daiquiri, but it's too expensive for me...😅 Nothing comes close to the fine drams in terms of price/performance. Still a great thing here for high ester power drinks!

Pur reicht ein Lippenbenetzer, um eine unglaubliche Aromenbombe im Mund zu zünden. Schöne Ester mit einem cremigen, gebäckartigen Mundgefühl als Grundlage und einer hintergründigen, pflanzlich frischen Seite. Dabei gefährlich mild, was verleiten könnte ein größeres Schlückchen zu nehmen, mit eher fatalen Folgen. Zum Mixen großartig, aber auf Dauer würde ich ihn auch mit Wasserverdünnung nicht sippen wollen.
