Fruity high-ester Hampden with pineapple and tropical notes, lifted by PX sherry sweetness. Surprisingly smooth for 58.9%, though some find it youthful or a touch sweet; best enjoyed neat.

    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love this Hampden for its vibrant high‑ester fruit—think pineapple and ripe tropicals—framed by a well‑judged PX sherry touch. For 58.9% and its youth, many find it impressively smooth, with fair value noted. The finish adds subtle sweetness without drowning the funk; enjoyed neat, some even mix a Mai Tai. With 43 community reviews, it’s a confidently chosen limited release of 171 bottles.

    Un nez fruité à souhait avec des fruits tropicaux trop mûrs, de l’ananas mais aussi de la cerise et de l’écorce d’orange confites. L’attaque en bouche est vive et un peu heurtée, les saveurs ont de la peine à s’aligner et un peu d’amertume médicamenteuse vient un peu gâcher la fête. Tout s’arrange en finale, les goûts se mélangent plus harmonieusement et le tout se termine sur une note de griotte amère. Un rhum tout à fait intéressant, son milieu de bouche lui fait perdre pas mal de points. Dommage, ce qui reste en bouche après quelques minutes est magnifique !

    Surprised me in a positive way. C<>H character comes through in the nose and palate. Finish is unfortunately short and flat. The finish fortunately does not predominate...but without a finish it would probably be a bit better for me. A little more ABV would have been good. PLV with 82€ for 0.7 liters and GRF release in my eyes absolutely okay. Now off into the May Tai with it.

    I definitely liked that rum… A overwhelming mix of high ester, grilled pineapple and sherry notes 🤤 After the 3rd or 4th sip and some rest i found some delicious almond notes too. On the palate you can find almost the same notes. The alcohol is not integrated well, so it‘s a „bit“ spicy on the tongue. The finish is quite long and bit astringend.

    This one was a nice surprise and the price is pretty good so one bottle ended up in my shopping bag. Nice and fruity with the Jamaica notes and light wood. Not a super funky Jamaican but still does what it's supposed to 😊
