Warehouse #1 Hampden Overproof Rum John Crow Edition DOK
Classic DOK: turbo-charged esters, banana, gluey funk and ripe fruit—sharp but, as several say, notably drinkable for the style. One to try if you enjoy untamed Jamaican spirits.
Funky esters, banana, glue—surprisingly easy for a DOK.

How does this rum taste?
- erstaunlich leicht zu trinken
- taste bomb
- elegant in mouth, despite the mark
Warehouse #1’s unaged Hampden DOK barrels into the glass with a wallop of esters, lashings of overripe banana and funky, gluey aromas. Nail polish and fermenting fruit pop up on nearly every nose and palate note, with one user calling it a "taste bomb" (NoMorePants) and another noting it "feiert Party auf meiner Zunge" (@Fuwi). While the punchy profile is what fans look for, several found it surprisingly approachable for its ABV—Thunderbird describes it as "erstaunlich leicht zu trinken". Medicinal, spicy, even hints of peppermint and smoked undertones round out a "very long finish" (rum_sk), though some wish the fruity highlights lasted even longer.

"The best unaged DOK I have ever tasted. And yes, I have a lot of it :) ... Hampden, legendarni jamajska destilerka, ktera krome rumu produkuje take alkohol do parfemu. Ve vsech rumech z teto destilerky ucitite divoke estery, po kterych cely vas organizmus nasakne vuni zluteho tropickeho ovoce - manga, papaji, anansu, broskvi. Jeden z rumu, ktere "must try before die""
"Lots of eagle owl and alcohol on the nose. Exactly what I expect from a strong DOK. In the mouth everything comes together briefly, slightly sour, sweet and sticky aromas. Relatively long finish for an unaged rum, which feels increasingly sweet towards the end. With some ageing, a great rum is sure to emerge here, the base product here is certainly top-notch. A little plus point: the great back label. I just love a bit of documentation."
"Flavor comes through here in contrast to the fine drams DOK more ginger banana and spices with. Overall, the fine drams is also much more complex and round, this is me a little too salty, smoky and spicy. But still a class DOK.But also in the daiquiri dominate the almost reminiscent of bacon notes, fun but the fine drams has also here clearly the nose in front!"
"#4043 This was the final one and I had to admit that after this one I i dug into the Romdeluxe Trelawny White DOK. This one is also intense and fruity with nice esters and some polish in there. I'd say workshop, but we're not fully there 😊 Spicy and oily palate with a very long finish. I'd like to think that this one could spice up and already good mixer by a few steps. Price to quality is very good in my mind."
