How does this rum taste?
The S.B.S DOK - PX Cask DOK is a Jamaican rum from the Hampden distillery, distilled in 2020. This rum, selected by 1423 World Class Spirits, is known for its intense ester aroma complemented by notes of pineapple, tropical fruit, and banana. With an ABV of 57%, it delivers a powerful tasting experience dominated by pineapple, ester, and honey, with slight sherry cask influence. While its bold ester and tropical notes captivate some, others mention its overwhelming alcohol presence and perceive it as slightly unbalanced due to its youthful character. The added sweetness from the PX cask is noted as a point of contention. Overall, it is appreciated for its distinctive Hampden profile and aroma, although some suggest more aging could enhance its depth.

Sehr schöner Hampden. Mir kommt in derNase gleich Ester und auch Zucker entgegen. Ich liebe diesen Geruch ja sehr. Im Gaumen ist er dann zusätzlich noch sehr intensiv und leicht alkoholisch. Alkohol gut eingebunden. Lecker.
DOK is really cool... and beautiful... and if a rum can stand any other kind of barrel maturation, then it's DOK. That's why I'm going to keep an open mind... Nose: Ester without end. No question about it. Plus the typical pineapple and banana as well as lemon. Marzipan sweetness is not missing either. The PX lends a pleasant smoky note and transforms the otherwise fine glue and something thicker, towards nail polish. What can I say, it harmonizes. 8,1 Palate: intense esters!!! Initially astringent then grilled pineapple, closely followed by intense sweetness, like from sugar syrup or candied something. Very clearly due to the PX. A little too much sweetness and PX for me. 7,7
Ich muss sagen bin positiv überrascht von dem kleinen Kameraden, schöne fruchtige Esternoten mit tollen funk. Leichte Marzipan Honig noten. Das PX rundet den Dok schön ab, also absolut nicht störend. Alkohl ist auch gut eingebunden
Interessante Melange, die süss-saure Aromatik aus tropischen Fruchtestern und süssem Sherry kann aber deutlich besser funktionieren, wie beispielsweise die Pagos-Releases zeigen. Zeigt sehr deutliche Alkoholaromen. Wirkt auf mich zu jung und unausgewogen.
