How does this rum taste?
RumX members love the high-ester fruit burst: pineapple, banana and marzipan on the nose, with overripe tropical and candied fruits on the palate. Unaged yet surprisingly complex, several note a buttery feel and light roasted hints, plus the classic gluey funk of C<>H. Bottled at 60% and limited to 5000, this popular release is praised in 67 reviews; neat for ester fans and also works in cocktails.

A really good release considering it's unaged. Fruity with nice esters and a lovely roasted note.
Tasted the 8 Hampden marks and re-tasted a year later. The most expressive nose, a little alcoholic but with vegetal and bitter notes. The palate entry is a little bumpy, but quickly becomes delicious. This is the most complex of the series. The very long finish seems to confirm that the higher the esters, the longer the finish. The empty glass has slight hints of woodiness/smokiness, and is also reminiscent of a Scotch whisky. Splendid white rum, my favorite of the series without a doubt.
Kenne die Chemie deines Hampden-Rums! Das 8-Marks-Set ist sehr informativ und lehrreich. Das C<>H Mark besteht hauptsächlich aus Butyrate- und Capr-Estern, also volle Ladung saure Früchte, rote Beeren, Kokos und kandierte Früchte. Auch etwas buttriges oder sahniges findet sich an der Nase. Im Mund süß und kandierte Früchte, wobei ein stets überreifes, vergorenes und buttriges Aroma zurückbleibt.
I tasted it after breathing. It's getting interesting 😀
