Fruity, dry unaged Hampden with pineapple, cherry and a touch of cocoa; some detect solvent notes and a short finish. Well-judged ABV and enjoyable neat or with cola, say reviewers.

    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise its bright tropical fruit and citrus over a lean, dry palate, with hints of pineapple and cherry and occasional cocoa/nutty touches. Despite 60% ABV, many find it approachable; some enjoy it with cola. A few note solvent/glue tones and a drier, shorter finish versus other marks. A limited 5,000-bottle unaged Hampden, it’s a popular pick with 73 reviews and strong buyer confidence.

    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.
