“Brine, old cooking fat, nail polish remover, fermented fruit. What doesn't sound very tempting is a finely balanced, highly complex wealth of aromas that make up a high-quality rum. Astringency just tolerable, but too much acidity in the finish for me. Therefore not top of the league for me.”

“Great fireworks. Creamy texture like the other world-class Hampdens. Strikes just the right balance between acidity, fruit and esters. Super elegant, light-footed rum. Slightly metallic notes on the finish.”

“Up to now, I haven't been able to do much with most continentally matured Hampdens or Jamaicans from the 90s (in relation to the price) and have a preference for tropically matured ones. But this one tastes quite good to me and is definitely one of the better/best I've tried. Reminds me of the Salon du Rhum, which I also found very cool.”
