    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love this Wu Dram Clan Hampden for its intense high-ester funk and overripe tropical fruit—pineapple, banana, even papaya—backed by hints of vanilla and light wood. Despite 67.3%, many find the alcohol superbly integrated with a long finish. Some note a dry, tannic edge and astringency. Enjoy neat for its complexity or try in a Mai Tai. With 60 reviews, it’s a popular <>H release of 232 bottles.

    Fruity, strong and above all fresh Hampden <>H. No hokiness or dustiness. Nice cask from WDC, as usual. Convinces me.

    Edit: tore open another fresh bottle to mix on Father's Day. Very refreshing, fruity CubaLibre. It's a real pleasure. Franconian Tasting Gang on 02.03.2024 In comparison, once WuDram from the already opened bottle, as well as a sample that was bottled directly after opening. In contrast, a longer-opened Nobilis, the CoR, the HV 2006 and the rum from Morisco Spirits were tasted. It seems that this is once again a super <>H vintage. In conclusion, the WuDram from the opened bottle tasted better than the fresh sampel. Otherwise, the differences are very small.

    Previously had the Hampden Sta(r)um from V&M from the same vintage. The WDC is less palate-flattering, but much more adatring and demanding. A broad Hampden board where you get exactly what you expect. But nothing more.

    Today a little crosstasting with the CoR <>H 2013 and the WDC. There is no clear winner here, but they are very similar. It rather depends on personal preference. The WDC is quite brute on the nose with full Hampden essence...on the palate it is much tamer than the CoR. The finish is also somewhat softer.
