Hampden 8 Marks Collection (1 year) C<>H
Highly praised for its intense esters, overripe fruit and surprising complexity at just one year, with a warm, long finish that many rank among the top of the 8 Marks set.
Fans of high-ester Jamaican funk who enjoy bright citrus, overripe tropical and red fruits at a punchy 52%, and want to compare individual Hampden marks side by side.

How does this rum taste?
High-ester fruit bomb with bite
If you like bold Hampden funk, this is a great way to taste the C<>H mark with just enough wood and dilution to add depth without muting the esters.
Beginners or those sensitive to higher ABV and aggressive esters, or anyone looking for a soft, long-aged sipper without youthful wood and solventy notes.

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.
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.
Auto-translatedJetzt 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
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.
