How does this rum taste?
The 8 Marks Collection (1 year) C<>H from Hampden distillery, Jamaica, is a rum known for its vibrant aroma and taste profile. Distilled from molasses using a pot still, this rum exhibits overripe fruits, esters, and citrus notes. Users praise its aromatic complexity with red fruits and cocoa elements, balanced with subtle wood integration. Slightly ester-driven, it delivers fruity and floral undertones on the palate. While aging has enhanced its complexity, some feel it lacks depth compared to other aged variants, although still considered a solid entry in the Hampden 8 Marks series. With a 52% ABV, it promises a bold, engaging experience for rum enthusiasts.

A lovely, complex nose of candied fruit, red fruit, Ibiscus flower and vanilla. The attack on the palate is smooth, aromatic and complex, with well-integrated wood. The finish is long, elegant and a little bitter. A very fine rum, complex in aroma but lacking a little depth.
Bestes Ergebnis aus der einjährigen Lagerung der Hampden 8 Mark-Reihe!Natürlich hoher Estergehalt (saure Früchte und rote Beeren, was charakteristisch für C<>H ist), aber es ist erstaunlich, was ein Jahr Lagerung ausmachen kann. Deutlich komplexer in seiner Zusammensetzung als seine Brüder. Wie immer Furfurale, Whisky-Lactone, nun aber auch mit größeren Anteilen weiterer Molekülsorten. Zum Beispiel Ellagsäure (Tannine, Bitterkeit), was eventuell die Assoziation mit Schokolade bewirkt.
Hampden 8 Marks Collection 1 year, hier der vorletzte, der C Diamond H. Schon nah dran an der höchsten Esterstufe, deswegen natürlich Ester und auch noch Zitrusfrüchte in der Nase. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls, kommt hier noch eine gewisse Fruchtigkeit hinzu.
Jetzt der vorletzte der acht Marks Reihe. Ester wird hier immer deutlicher und auch Früchte zu erkennen, wie rote Früchte und Zitrusfrüchte. Alles in allem ein gelungener Rum dieser Reihe und bisher einer der besten
