How does this rum taste?
Huge, fruity high-ester Hampden funk bomb
If you enjoy big Hampden funk like Velier or RumClub 2014 <>H, this is in the same league—huge esters, plenty of fruit, and heat that’s impressively under control.
Beginners, anyone sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers who dislike solventy, funky profiles and prefer gentle, sweet, low-ester rums.

Tasted fresh from the bottle while sampling. From the first impression, it can already do a lot. Despite the high ABV, I find the alcohol extremely well integrated. Very balanced for me. It would have been nice if I had had it a few days earlier during crosstasting. But on its own, it's a real competitor to the Nobilis No.14, which I would also rank ahead of the WuDram and CoR from memory. But right now it's really picking me up.
Auto-translatedThe quintessence of a good Hampden. Very straightforward and elegant. Has everything I want from a Hampden and is still outrageously drinkable.
Auto-translatedFunky, pleasant nose: mixture of tropical fruits and glue/ester that naturally takes over, wood and marzipan Palate: again, this blatant mixture with dominant glue, the tropical fruits, vanilla, cashew nuts and marzipan, maybe even some strawberry, alcohol strong but well integrated
Auto-translatedSehr schöner kontinentaler Hampden. Der Alkohol ist sehr gut eingebunden. Leicht cremiges Mundgefühl. Die tropischen Früchte kommen sehr gut durch. Nicht zu viel Säure. Dazu etwas Vanille und Marzipan.
