CoR Hampden Jamaica HD OWH 2012 11yr 60,4%
The Jamaica HD OWH by Hampden distillery, selected by The Colours of Rum, offers a noteworthy experience. With a robust ABV of 60.4%, this 11-year-old pot still rum greets you with a nose full of tropical fruit, banana, pineapple, caramel, and confectionery notes. On the palate, it presents a blend of esters, nutty, woody, and dry caramel flavors, rounded with a hint of marzipan sweetness and citrus acidity. The finish is of medium length with floral and medicinal hints, becoming more pronounced with time. Although it may seem straightforward and needs aeration to best express itself, its tropical notes and rich ester profile provide a unique tasting experience reminiscent of traditional low-ester Jamaican rums. Ideal for those seeking depth in simplicity.

“A fairly straightforward Hampden low ester, with tropical fruit, vanilla, a little wood and a pinch of medicinal touches on the esters on the nose. Pastry aromas add roundness to the nostrils. A relatively simple nose, but one that lacks the depth to make a real impression. The attack on the palate is initially lively, tense and biting on the esters, before softening on exotic fruits and the sweetness of marzipan. Citrus fruits add a touch of acidity. Regrettably, apart from the palate entry, the rum remains flat on the palate, without the slightest surprise. The alcohol could be better integrated. The finish is of decent length, with more floral and medicinal aromas. The funkiness comes out more, with the barrel adding tannins. A rum that clearly needs aeration to express itself, but whose finish alone cannot create ecstasy.”
