    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members celebrate this unaged Hampden DOK for its explosive esters: sweet‑sour pineapple and overripe banana leap out, with glue/solvent notes and a savory umami edge. At 60%, it’s powerful yet surprisingly sweet, finishing long and on the dry side. Often cited as great for amplifying tiki cocktails, it’s a popular pick on RumX (65 reviews, strong buyer confidence) from a limited run of 5000 bottles.

    This is the best one of the series. No doubt that it's DOK with all its nice esters exploding on the palate.

    Tasted all 8 Hampden Marks and re-tasted a year later. The least beautiful nose of the series, a little deviant, pungent and with solvents. But still reasonable, contrary to my expectations. Less fruit than the other marks. The palate is surprisingly smooth after this entry. The longest finish but a little deviance reappears as on the nose. Disappointing and brings deviant aromas but remains quite pleasant.

    Dégustation du coffret Hampden 8 marks entre copains ! Un bon lundi ! Notes rapides : L’explosion d’Ester est la, le nez est excessif sur les solvants et le vernis, En bouche les fruits et le gras apporte une douceur, une dualité qui combat cette grosse claque d’esters. Finale quand même assez sèche. C’est un peu monolithique et trop droit pour avoir envie d’en reprendre mais une expérience intéressante! Édit : pas grand chose à redire il met une claque au palais, mais c’est quand même bon !

    For me the best .hammer part.
