    How does this rum taste?

    This Rum Runner OWH rum, crafted at the Hampden distillery in Jamaica, is a 59.7% ABV, cask-strength delight. Distilled from molasses using a Coffey Still, and aged for 10 years, it offers an aromatic bouquet of banana, young wood, and tropical fruits. On the palate, it reveals notes of pineapple, vanilla, and a subtle sourness, complemented by a young wood background. Despite some reviews citing alcohol harshness, it is valued for its balance of fruit and wood, and serves as an approachable introduction to Hampden's low ester rums. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a complex yet accessible rum experience.

    Un bon hampden low ester. Meilleur avec une pointe d'eau. Arômes boisés sur l'amande, fruits discrets.

    The nose starts very fruity, after a while the cask also comes into its own. Way down on the Hampden scale, but again amazingly intense! On the palate, unfortunately with a strong alcoholic spiciness but balanced between fruit and cask. Very good entry-level Hampden at cask strength.

    Ordentlicher Hampden. Das Nosing ist toll. Geschmacklich lässt er dann Federn, da der Alkohol nicht perfekt eingebunden ist. Jammern auf hohem Niveau :/) toller Rum

    Un Hampden léger et distillé en colonne pour un profil plus subtil. Le nez est dominant sur les fruits tropicaux mûrs (banane, ananas et mangue) mais laisse percevoir un voile d’esters assez fin, accompagné d’un boisé qui a légèrement marqué le rhum. Un nez délicat mais qui manque un peu de tonicité. On reste dans la subtilité en bouche. Les fruits exotiques prennent le pas, avant qu’un léger boisé et une touche de vanille ne fassent leur entrée. Les notes acidulées d’agrumes et les tanins sont également de la partie. Une association assez classique au tempérament plutôt calme malgré le degré affiché. La finale tire un peu plus sur les notes phénoliques et médicinales. Les fruits et le bois suivent en arrière-plan. C’est un peu plus sec mais toujours accessible. Un Hampden clairement fait pour varier des profils high ester. Il n’est pas mal fait mais il manque quelque chose pour être vraiment au top niveau.
