“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.”

“Tolles Feuerwerk. Cremige Textur wie bei den anderen Weltklasse Hampdens. Trifft genau die richtige Mitte aus Säure, Frucht und Ester. Super eleganter, leichtfüßiger Rum. Im Abgang leicht metallische Noten.”

“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.”
