How does this rum taste?

  • Bold ester profile
  • Complex tropical aroma
  • Defined fruity notes

Jamaica HD <>H, crafted at the renowned Hampden distillery and curated by The Colours of Rum, is a 2013 pot still rum offering a potent 66.8% ABV. Aged for ten years, it presents a classic Hampden profile, rich with esters, tropical fruits, and hints of marzipan. Aromas of pineapple and solvents complement a complex palate marked by intense esters, glue, and tropical notes. Users highlight its bold character, with nuanced flavors of salinity and wood.

"Shortly after opening and pouring, the whole room smells of glue! This rum cannot be mistaken for Hampden! It is not easy to "smell past" the esters. Ripe pineapple and marzipan are definitely behind it. Slightly weaker vanilla, pastry and yoghurt also yellow fruits. On the palate, I find the rum much more balanced! The barrel and roasted aromas are added here, as well as a salty note and olives, which form a nice interplay with the fruity sweetness. I also really like the seamless transition to the almost endless finish. The salty note picks up speed here. An excellent, intense, "thoroughbred" Hampden. According to the BAT blog, Hampden produced the Mark OWH in 2013. However, this rum is definitely one of the <>H" - 9.0/10

"The 2013 <>Hs seem to be a nice vintage. From memory a little less vibrant than the fabulous Nobilis but still very intense and tasty." - 8.7/10

"Edit: Nochmal im Crosstasting vekostet. Für mich liegt der Nobilis und der WuDram noch vor ihm, da diese einen Ticken besser sind. Die volle Dröhnung Klebstoff mit Ester gepaart. Super Teil, nur den Abgang und dwn Nachklang finde ich ein bißchen kurzweilig, was ihm die höhere Punktzahl vermiest." - 8.7/10
