“Fantastic nose, rich fruits, esters; slightly alcoholic, but delightful overall.”

The Hampden (Alter Ego) <>H, distilled in 2014 and aged for 10 years, offers a bouquet of ester, tropical fruit, fermented notes, young wood, and glue. On the palate, it presents vibrant tropical fruits, notably pineapple, with estery complexity and hints of alcohol. Users highlight its magnificent nose, marked by exotic fruits and solvent-like qualities. However, it is noted for being slightly unbalanced with a short finish and a somewhat prominent alcohol presence. Still, it maintains the signature Hampden characteristics of ester and fruit richness. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a classic, albeit youthful, Hampden experience. Perfect for those who appreciate an intense and aromatic Jamaican rum, with a fair balance between bold esters and fruity brightness.

“First impression when filling the sampel is unfortunately not so impressive. I would now put it behind the CoR, WuDram and others. But I'll taste it again when it's less hectic. It was also a little too alcoholic for me.”

“Glue, nail polish remover, esters and solvents dominate the nose. In direct comparison with the WDC, it seems younger, more restless and lacks a little power on the palate. For me, not a top representative of the <>h from 2013/2014.”

“I think this is by far the weakest of the many 2013/2014 tropical <>Hs so far Both the nose and the palate cannot match the level of Nobilis, CoR, WuDram and the like. Alcohol integration not particularly good and also a little more acidic.”
