     Again, an excellent and classic Hampden from the 1992 vintage. A bit sweeter and also wilder than Ed. 4. Also more salt. I like the herbaceous, spicy note from the sister cask a tad better.

     Crisp fruit, balanced sweetness, plus subtle green aromas that remind me of tea - very nice bottling.

     12th GRF, Colours of Rum Tasting. Quick and short... Nose: bacony esters, fine lemon, good middle. Palate: nicely fruity, rendered fat here too. Very round and one. Fun.
