RX15404 Very good Pot Still Rum Single Cask 276 bottles Under 250€
“Intensely fruity, well-balanced, smooth, complex, and dangerously drinkable Hampden rum.”

Rum Artesanal JMC Distillery C<>H is a superb Jamaican rum from Hampden, aged for 33 years. Designed for connoisseurs, it bursts with tropical fruit like pineapple, papaya, and mango, complemented by Ester and subtle glue notes. The aging adds a refined complexity, with balanced wood and light bitterness, avoiding overpowering oakiness. The palate is oily and warm, with smooth, integrated alcohol ensuring an elegant sipping experience. A pronounced fragrance of barrel and vanilla lingers, with esters adding to its allure. The long-lasting finish features fruit and mild tannins. Though some may find it slightly past its peak, the complexity and well-roundedness make it stand out. Ideal for those who appreciate balance and depth in their high-ester rums.

“Wow.... Such power after 33 years... no matter how old these Hampdens are, they remain first class! The only fly in the ointment is that the long barrel ageing is now somewhat noticeable. But that's complaining on a high level... I'm thrilled 🤩 Today a small cross comparison with the RA JMC: The TRC is not as intense on the nose as the RA, but is much more incisive and intense on the palate. The RA, on the other hand, is almost soft, but more "drinkable"! They don't give each other much... brilliant Hampden essence”

“My first impression is that it suits my taste exactly. It's almost too drinkable for me, which makes it very dangerous. The taste lingers in the mouth for a long time. Not bad for a continental. I don't find it too woody either, which I had suspected. Edit: Now I've finished what's left in the bottle. I don't like it that much anymore. It degraded quite a bit after opening.”

“Tasted together with the Hampden Rum Club 1990 (RX14100) The color does not differ. The nose is wonderfully fruity and slightly fruitier than the Rumclub, which has a hint more yoghurt/butter. The Rumclub is also a little more intense. Overall, very inviting and uncomplicated without the brute force of younger bottlings. The Rumclub is a nose ahead here with more complexity. On the palate, the Rumclub has something bacony/smoky that the RA doesn't have. The RA then again has a nice transition from intense fruit to brine and olives - I like it very much! The Rumclub is also a touch more complex on the palate. The fruit returns in the finish and lingers for a very long time. There is a little barrel influence, but in no relation to the long time in the barrel. In direct comparison, the RA seems less complex to me and therefore more palatable. These long continental matured Hampdens are really something great, they manage to hide their true age with ease, there is not too much wood or even bitterness anywhere. But if you take a closer look, you notice how round the time in the barrel has made the former rough edges of youth.”
