Wu Dram Clan Hampden Jamaican Rum (Flickenschild) SCJB 2024
Most enjoy the tropical fruit, pastry notes and long dry finish. Critics find the alcohol harsh, bitterness distracting and funk underwhelming. Overall seen as a decent but slightly disappointing blend.
Curious Jamaica fans who enjoy drier, low‑ester profiles and don’t mind some alcohol bite in exchange for wood, baking spices and subtle tropical fruit complexity.

Dry, woody Jamaica for patient sippers
If you like Smith & Cross or low‑ester Hampdens but want a drier, oakier take at higher strength, this is worth a try—just expect more wood and bite than funk.

8,2:On the nose, the first touch we get are overripe tropical fruits with caramelized fermented pineapple, overriden with baking spices, strong cinnamon and pastries. We cannot forget nails polish. After airing a bit, there is cookie dough and toasted wood with dried fruits, becomes roasted after a while and well balanced. We notice some flowery touch then and ginger. In the end it is more medicinal, metallic, with leather note and a bit dry. 8,5:On the palate, the first attack are ripe, velvety tropical fruits with confectionery, like fruit cake or brioche then intense peppery spiciness that quickly goes away and baking spices come instead. After it gets a bit metallic, bitter and dry. The fruits become dried, everything goes towards more balance, the wood toasted and there are some yellow fruits and biscuits. 8,6:The finish is long with dried fruits, tropical fruits, pastries, maple, some spiciness, baking spices, toasted wood, very round, a bit dry...
In der Nase alkoholisch, Ester, eindeutig Jamaika. Entsprechend im Mund, etwas tropische Früchte kommen noch dazu, allerdings schleicht sich eine leicht bittere Fehlnote ein. Alkohol ist nicht gut eingebunden. Die ganze Mischung ist ok, aber nicht mehr. Da gibt es für weniger Geld mehr und Besseres aus Jamaika. Mittelmäßig beschreibt das Ganze im Ergebnis recht treffend.
Subtle scent, it must be some low ester product ala owh or lfch. Never mind, if you let the rum sit, you get a lovely Jamaican perfume. Flavour-wise it may be more towards the Clarendon profile, which I don't care for, but what bothers me is the blandness. I enjoyed Hampden 8 more.
Auto-translatedDer Blend überzeugt mich leider nicht. Alkohol ist nicht sonderlich gut eingebunden. Der Clarendon Anteil scheint deutlich größer als der Hampden Anteil zu sein. Von dem kommt nämlich relativ wenig durch. Leichte Gewürznote, Holz. Der Abgang ist noch am besten mit einer leicht fruchtigen Note
