    How does this rum taste?

    • Potent ester profile
    • Complex tropical flavors
    • Remarkable alcohol integration

    The Wild Series Rum Jamaica No. 57, produced at Hampden distillery and bottled by Romdeluxe, boasts a remarkable 84.5% ABV. Crafted from molasses and aged for only 2 years, this limited edition rum captivates with its intense ester profile, featuring prominent marzipan and tropical fruit aromas. Users describe it as surprisingly approachable despite its high proof, delivering bold flavors of pineapple, almond, and subtle smoky notes. While its cask strength provides a formidable punch, its balance and integration of flavors make it a standout choice for aficionados of high-ester Jamaican rums. However, the noticeable alcohol presence and limited aging may not justify the high price tag for all.

    "GRF13: The second high-proof short-stored HGML version of RdL for the GRF... and I'm thrilled again. It's not quite as strong as the first time, but it's certainly convincing. It's always amazing how you can make such high-proof alcohol so drinkable. I have to confess that I'm a confirmed HGML fan, so my euphoria may be taken into account here 😇"

    "Thanks to Kim from Romdeluxe, we were able to compare it directly with its predecessor, as he provided us with the rest of a sample. Not bad in my opinion, but I thought the predecessor was better. The price put me off buying one, it just wasn't worth it to me."

    "It's incredible how accessible this rum is, even though it's 85%. Nonetheless, it is and remains a mega ester bomb and despite being as powerful as a lion. A few drops of water help to make it smoother, and other fruity notes such as peach and papaya also unfold. Really delicious!"

    "Tasted again at leisure after the GRF. Pineapple, almond, esters and light smoke. Creamy and intense. Despite a slight burn in the aftertaste, the alcohol is well integrated at a strong 84.5%. Nice to have tried it, but I don't need a whole bottle."
