    "A high ester content is felt during the tasting, but I think it feels pleasant - an explosion of fruit flavor that lingers on the palate for a long time."

    "A 2009 DOK, the legendary vintage with some really good bangers. Unfortunately, I have to admit that the Bristol bottlings can't keep up with the competition. Here, too, the rum seems a little thin to me, unfortunately."

    "The nose sums up everything we love about Hampden. The classic markers are well present with a perfect balance and without any mark of alcohol. Without surprise the mouth is not very powerful. A DOK all in delicacy what. We keep all the same the markers of the distillery. The finish is a bit short, slightly bitter and spicy. After having tasted it again I raise the note a bit because the nose is really fabulous and I found the mouth longer and less flat than the first time."
