    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the punchy esters and juicy tropical fruit in Hampden’s HLCF mark: pineapple, banana and marzipan on the nose, with a peppery, dry palate and a long, fruity finish. Unaged at 60% ABV, it’s a popular pick for sipping after a short rest and also works in cocktails. With 72 community reviews and only 5000 bottles, it’s a solid way to explore Hampden’s funk.

    All in all, an exciting tasting. Some of them were surprisingly delicious and tasty. The ever-popular distillery in a different light. Trying the basic product in this form has its appeal. The maturation through storage is a different matter. My platform: HLCF > HGML > C<>H Clear low-light: LROK

    Vanilla, light caramel. I know esters are a little higher here than LROK but it seems a little lighter in profile to me than LROK or even LFCH. Pours clear with light hint of gold like the others.

    Also top this Hampden from the 8 Marks Collection. Ester on the nose, of course, but also tropical. Fruits. The tropical fruits continue on the palate, in combination with citrus fruits. Alcohol well integrated. Delicious.

    Not a bad rum though I would have loved to try this one riped in a barrel. Fruity with nice esters.
