Habitation Velier Hampden Single Cask Berlin Bar Convent OWH

Vibrant, fruity aromas overshadow sharp alcohol bite.

    How does this rum taste?

    Fruity pineapple aroma
    Low-ester smoothness
    Authentic Jamaican experience

    The Single Cask Berlin Bar Convent OWH by Habitation Velier is an intriguing Jamaican rum from Hampden distillery, crafted with a pot still and molasses. Aromas of toffee, pineapple, and cocoa overlay a solvent base, while flavors of pineapple, vanilla, and spice dominate its profile. Its 59.5% ABV adds a fiery kick that some find invigorating. Users appreciate its simplicity and smoothness for a low-ester variety, although critiques note a sharp alcohol edge and less complexity than expected at its price point. Limited to only 274 bottles, this eight-year-aged rum offers an authentic Jamaican tasting experience that both captivates and challenges with its profile.

     Nice easy sipping Hampden. Personally, however, I like the higher ester marks better. Nevertheless, a great single cask from Velier!

     Entspannter low ester Hampden unterm Radar! Schönes rundes Ding, Alkohol könnte nur etwas besser eingebunden sein. Und der Holz Einfluss ist mir hier insgesamt etwas zu dominant, dennoch ein toller OWH Mal zur Abwechslung.

     Verkostet auf der Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024. Leider hat mich diese Abfüllung so gar nicht abgeholt. Der Preis der dafür aufgerufen wird ist meines Erachtens der Rum nicht wert. Fand ihn leider ziemlich enttäuschend

     Probiert auf der Spree-Rundfahrt mit Kirsch zum 12. GRF: Gutes Low-Ester Single-Cask, das Hampden-Geschmack auch ohne krasse Ester liefern kann
