Hampden 8 MARKS COLLECTION LFCH 2022 Unaged 60%
The 8 MARKS COLLECTION LFCH rum from Jamaica's renowned Hampden Distillery is an intriguing unaged spirit crafted from molasses using a pot still. With an impressive 60% ABV, this limited edition release offers only 5000 bottles. Tasting notes reveal a complex profile characterized by tropical fruits, esters, citrus, and green apple, with a distinct solvent undertone. The palate delivers bold ester flavors with pineapple, banana, and a dry cherry finish. While some find its nutty, dry fruitiness appealing, others critique it for being overly solvent-like and reminiscent of early alcohol experiences. Perfect for those interested in unique and raw rum expressions, it provides a glimpse into Hampden's diverse craftsmanship.

“Dégustation des 8 marks Hampden et regoûté un an après. La dégustation est très proche de celle de l’année passée. Le nez crayeux du OWH est gommé, il est remplacé par du solvant et de la colle, les fruits - dont la figue - ne venant qu’après. La bouche est plus mince que le OWH mais les solvants ont presque disparu et les fruits ont pris le dessus. Il est plus long avec beaucoup de fruits. Le verre vide est très fruité, comme un verger tropical et les solvants réapparaissent.”

“This one has a nice nutty touch to the fruity notes. Lightly dry and has a lovely nose in the empty glass.”

“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.”
