How does this rum taste?
RumX members love its balanced, approachable Jamaican character: tropical fruit and citrus on the nose with gentle esters, vanilla and spice. At 50.1% cask strength, many find it surprisingly smooth and well-integrated, ideal for sipping neat. Some mention a slightly thin body or shorter finish, yet the 25-year age and limited 164-bottle release make it a distinctive pick, with 45 RumX reviews and rising confidence.

A blend of a Hampden, a younger Long Pond and a foreground apricot note. It goes most in the direction of a Low Ester Marks like HLCF Hampden 1992, but is not quite typical for it. I don't know such an apricot note from any other Hampden. In any case, an exciting and in my eyes fantastic rum!
Blindverkostun: A very pleasant Sipper from Jamaica, with varied flavors, but very difficult to assign a particular distillery!Nice fruity, a perceptible wood impact, light funk and subtle ester!Successful bottlingToday tasted for the 2nd time, the first impression has been confirmed! On the palate I now taste a little more wood out...possibly Hampden HLCF or Clarendon!
In the nose much Hampden us very appealing. Wonderful fragrance. In the mouth rather on the milder side. Good Jamaican. All the elements are very well connected. The finish is also surprisingly long . Flavorful and very well balanced. Very good rum.
A fine droplet... Nose: beautifully complex Jamaican with a medium ester content. Cocoa powder and toffee are present first, followed by a fine sweetness of passion fruit and muted papaya. I also detect a slight smoky note of tobacco. Then again a tart sweetness of maple syrup and some wood. Very pleasant. Palate: you can't feel the 50.1% at all. It almost seems a little thin. Only the esters are very light. Some tangerine and clearly candied orange peel. The sweetness reminds me of burnt sugar dissolved in water. A little green at the back with lovage. Pleasant and round, it requires a finer tongue to reveal its depths. Worth a second sip.
