    Had a nice evening with friends and a few good rums. Once rested this is a really nice and fruity release. I like the funk and esters in the profile and also the citrus notes in the background. Overall pretty good but the price is too high in my opinion.

    Nose focused on citrus-ey and sour notes. Most Funk on the nose out of the group. Most astringent and funky one on the palate. So far I liked all out of the 2001 <>H batch. Looking at a close field: KD > TB > RC-M > RC Sidenote: makes an excellent Mai Tai.

    Mitgebracht vom 10. GRF. Dort hat er schon überzeugt und sich nicht zuletzt durch sein PLV gegen einige andere Hampdens durchgesetzt. Insgesamt eher ein entspannterer Vertreter der Hampden-Fraktion, aber nicht langweilig. Sehr trocken, dafür durch sein Mark und die geringeren Ester weniger adstringent. Alkohol nahezu nicht präsent, und das trotz immerhin 58%. Alles in allem sehr rund und lecker! Der trinkt sich einfach schnell weg ;-)

    Very nice fruity nose but mouth is quite unbalanced by a lot of smoky notes. Too bad, it could have been a very good rum.
