Hampden 8 MARKS COLLECTION LFCH

Pineapple and banana meet green apple, dry and lightly roasted.

Lively tropical fruits and esters on the nose, with a palate featuring pineapple, green apple, and a dry, slightly roasted character. Community feedback leans positive, especially for fruit-forward rum fans seeking raw distillery character at 60%.

    Pineapple and overripe tropical fruits take center stage in Hampden's 8 MARKS COLLECTION LFCH, accented by hints of green apple, banana, and roasted notes. RumX tasters highlight its fruity character, balanced dry finish, and underlying esters—though some find it less complex than aged expressions. Worth a sip for lovers of vibrant, unaged Jamaican rums.

     Tasting of the 8 Hampden Marks and re-tasting one year later. The tasting is very similar to that of last year. The chalky nose of the OWH has been erased, replaced by solvent and glue, with fruit - including fig - coming later. The palate is thinner than the OWH, but the solvents have almost disappeared and the fruit has taken over. It's longer, with lots of fruit. The empty glass is very fruity, like a tropical orchard, and the solvents reappear.

     Unidentifiable alcoholic distillate. Smells like the mix you refused from your best buddy at a party when you were 16 and then ended up drinking anyway, only to throw up 2 hours later.

     Der nächste leckere Rum aus der 8 Marks Kollektion. Finde ich etwas besser als den ersten. Leichte Noten von Kakao oder Schokolade sind zu erkennen aber auf der anderen seite auch sehr fruchtig. Interessanter Rum

     Tried at the Hampden Masterclass with Daniele Biondi during Whisky Live. Great experience to deconstruct Hampden, although the individual unaged spirits weren’t that great overall. 2. LFCH 5.5 Boring, close to Vodka for me. Didn’t like at all. Not sure if it is my palate or the pour stood too long, vastly different than the others.
