    "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."

    "The quintessence of a good Hampden. Very straightforward and elegant. Has everything I want from a Hampden and is still outrageously drinkable."

    "Sehr 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."
