Pure Single Jamaican Rum

This rum, together with its Overproof brother, marking an historic moment for all rum enthusiasts loving the funky 100% pot still rum from Jamaica. Now we don’t need to buy expensive Veliers. The nose is fruity and spicy with esters. At the palate it’s complex, intense and funky with strong flavors of fruits and spices.

Sehr ungewohnt. Fast wie Whiskey. Wirklich komplett ungesüßt. Braucht ne 2te Chance vllt.

Finally i had the opportunity to taste this „famous“ rum. Very good rum. It could be a high 80 rum, but the alcohol isn‘t integrated well. I can recommend it for mixing and sipping.🥃 Very good price for value 💪🏻 Nose: a lot of fruits ester, pineapple, apricot, spicy, solvents, overripe banana, leather, vanilla Mouth: dry, elegant, delicious, spicy, banana, ester, solvents, fruity, peppery, vanilla, roasted Finish: is medium long, dry, astringend, woody(oak), vanilla, nutty, honey, fruity

This is definitely a "Jamaican". Funky and fruity rum that can be both a sipper and mixer to your liking. For the price a pretty good rum. I just did another tasting of this rum and it scored a few extra points this time.

I just love it. Super daily sipper and my first Jamaican rum. I use it again and again for drinks, but I can recommend it to any rum novice. All in all, it's simply a fruity/estery thing.

The nose on tropical fruits well candied, buttered, spicy and metallic, the whole butter vanilla brings us a pretty pastry and greedy side all that slightly wooded. After 15/20 minutes it is rather red fruits which arrive with a touch of milk chocolate. The mouth is directly fruity, metallic, spicy and greedy like the nose. The final fades on the same notes as the mouth with a small smoked, chocolate and honeyed side which come to be added. A very wise Jamaican but still very aromatic for such a low titration! 🇯🇲

Good rum value for money! Less pronounced roast than its 60% velier counterpart.

Well suited for getting to know the Hampden style. You get an idea of the heavy Hampden Rums.

8,8:On the nose, it opens with a gigantic fruit salad, drenched in sunshine. The very ripe exotic fruits have not yet passed the fateful stage of fermentation; they are simply gorged with sugar and develop sweet pastry aromas. These include almond powder and amarena cherry, spiced up with walnut liqueur and pine thorns. Aeration and time bring a lovely golden patina, which adds firmness and liveliness, flowery notes. That's what's needed to contain all this powerful, fragrant fruit. There's also a hint of spice, with cinnamon and vanilla taking us right back to pastry indulgence. 8,8:On the palate, the attack is well-balanced, soft, slightly toasted, but with enough strength not to get bored, a bit spicy with vanilla, other oak spice, It is very slightly coppery, salty and hooks the taste buds with greedy notes of caramelized nuts. The fruit is darker than on the nose, with blackcurrant, blueberry and more mellow, candied prunes. The rum is relatively light, with a delicate creaminess, after some rest, also herbaceous. 8,5:The finish is fine and pastry-like, dry, hovering between prunes and almonds, with a pinchof smoke. It becomes even better, more balanced with few airings. I bought the bottle more than one year ago. This tasting is so far the best one.

Still my first recommendation for entry level rums in Jamaica especially Hampden. Super availability at a reasonable price.

Edit: Danke @TheDunderHut endlich habe ich wieder eine Flasche vom Batch#1 und kann das richtige Foto einfügen. Für mich persönlich besser als der Batch #2 deshalb nochmal alle 2 korrigiert Für mich war er der Einstieg in die Welt des Jamaica Rums. Würde diesen auch jedem Neuling weiterempfehlen, der die Jamaica Rumwelt erkunden will. Ich persönlich finde, dass dieser ein super Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis hat. Für mich ist er mein Lieblingsersterschrittindiejamaikaweltrum und das wird er wohl auch bleiben.

In the nose a dream. Must smell him again and again. Taste like its big brother only a little drier in the finish.

A classic in the Jamaican range!

Une des meilleure introduction pour découvrir le monde des rhums Jamaïcain . On a beaucoup de fruit murs. Une peu d ester avec du léger solvant. Le boisé est plutôt discret pourun 8 ans. C est un peu funky , mais pas hyper exubérant. Donc facile à faire goûter.

Schon wesentlich bessere aus der destille probiert. Verhältnis mäßig extrem wenig ester für nen Hampden. Hier empfiehlt sich die teurere Variante mit mehr Prozenten zu kaufen. Den der hier ist kein guter Vertreter seiner Art und Verhältnismäßig flach. Wenn man das so über einen jamaikaner sagen darf 😅
