    Unmistakably a superb Hampden. Alcohol well integrated. Very fruity nose typical notes of pineapple 'papaya ' banana and ne fat portion of ester. On the palate similar initially a short sweetness but within seconds is slain by the ester ... the mouth space fills out schööön fruity with some time in the mouth also comes a slight bitterness and wood notes to it. I like very well even if he does not reach my personal reference (Flensburg JMC2007) he comes very close. Great mixer in May Tai 🤗

    #4236 03.09.2023 this was a nice blind tasting where I saw the black Glencairn tasting glasses for the first time. This was the final one and what a bomb to finish the evening. Esters are definitely there as well as close to rotten fruits. Intense and well balanced rum with nice and funky profile. The empty glass is really nice with some marzipan and vanilla. Price to quality is very good in my mind.

    A real aromatic hit, this Hampden knows how to exalt the senses. The nose is a concentrate of funk, with powerful phenolic and medicinal notes (thanks to the C<>H mark) that embalm the nostrils with solvents, glue, varnish, camphor and esters. The fruit is extremely ripe, very exotic and gripping on the nose. A hint of spice and pastry add roundness to this extreme profile. The attack on the palate is very tasty and fleshy. Underneath this dry, oily juice, overripe, exotic fruit competes with medicinal and estery notes in a brutal battle on the palate. The result is an aromatic concentrate as rich as it is powerful. The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is the Achilles' heel here: although it's of decent length, the aromas become much duller, leaving only a vague memory of the opulence present on the palate. While it's a shame to end on a more subdued note, this Hampden remains an undeniable and reasonably-priced value. A recommended rum for lovers of new sensations in Jamaica.
