“Very tasty.... From the nose to the finish very successful... it comes along relatively strong and self-confident... it contains all the important Hampden markers (pure ester), which fits and the price is perfectly okay here!”

“Nobilis N14 vs. SBS. Crown goes to the Nobilis. While both are extremely nice, the SBS feels more heavy and closed up. The Nobilis almost feels elegant with a very nice balance between esters and notes from the cask. Both are beasts however and I‘m surprised how much I like the actually. Nice cask selection from both bottlers.”

“88 points. Outstanding <>H, the aromas definitely hit my sweet spot. The flavours are amazing as well. An extremely round and drinkable Hampden, one of the best 2013’s that I’ve tasted. I really need a bottle of this one.”

“sehr runder <>H. Gefällt mir deutlich besser als der S.B.S (RX12623) aus dem gleichen Jahr. Für mich ist er irgendwo zwischen dem ausgezeichneten 2001 Old Brothers (RX9659) und dem 2011 Swell (RX10576).”

“I like the rum especially in the nose. If I may dare an adventurous comparison: like marzipan doused with warm solvent 😉 Extraordinary!Update 04.04.2022: The is so superbly round and quaffable that I have to add 3 to my 87 points awarded so far. Absolutely successful rum without weaknesses!”

“Surprisingly fruity on the nose! If he stands a little eucalyptus comes in.Also on the palate the fruitiest Hampden I have tasted so far. The finish tastes like a very fruity espresso with a young wood note.The smell is the absolute hammer, which alone would crack the 90 points. Taste is also top and surprisingly drinkable for the almost 70%, but does not quite keep up with the nose.”

“A really nice cask from Hampden that they bottled here. Lightly funky but well balanced/rounded and pretty good ABV integration. Flavours released after 15-20 minutes of rest. The empty glass is wonderful after an hour. Need to find me a bottle for my shelf.”

“Was für ein Knaller, ein sehr gelungener Hampden. Mehr gibt es eigentlich dazu nicht zu sagen. Wow! Auch beim erneuten Verkosten, bleibt er das Highlight. Ich ärgere mich bis jetzt noch, dass ich mir, wie ich die Chance hatte, keine Flasche zugelegt habe.”

“Würzig, kräftig. Deutlich reifer und erwachsener als die anderen 2013/2014 im Vergleich. Alkohol sehr hart an der Grenze zum Erträglichen.”

“When integration rhymes with perfection, you get this. A rum with a very fat, greedy nose, with beautiful notes of dairy products (cream, yoghurt), Jamaican funk (esters, glue, varnish, solvents and exotic fruits), a touch of olive and spices. The profile is smooth, but needs time to really reveal itself. Roundness on the palate. The alcohol is extremely well integrated. There are lovely fruity notes of banana, mango, pineapple and papaya, followed by lime, medicinal notes (esters, varnish, glue) and tannic oak. Olive and caramel soften the funk for a balanced, gourmand and intense whole. A terribly good and effective cocktail. The pleasure continues with a beautiful, funky, aromatic finish of exotic fruit, phenolic and fermented notes. The olive and the tannic, spicy, dry and astringent character give a lively finish. An excellent representative of the house, balanced, elegant and powerful at the same time. The integration of alcohol makes the difference here compared to the SBS, which is more aggressive for a similar profile.”

“Very nice release. 6 years tropical and 2 years continental. Esters are present, I like the young <>H clearly more than the 2001 bottlings. The alcohol is super integrated in my eyes. Priced at 129€ a fair release and I hope people drink it and it doesn't become a pinball object. Reminds me of the Swell 2011 <>H.Now comes the test in May Tai 5/5 should be in it.🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🥰”
