Velier Hampden Alex Webb Edition (Magnum) LROK

A solid pick for fans of punchy fruit and classic Hampden esters, though it’s not the most original take on the mark. One to try if you enjoy bright pineapple and youthful wood.

Fresh pineapple and esters, lively but easygoing Hampden.

    How does this rum taste?

    • Strong taste and eater note
    • Puissamment marqué par l’ananas
    • Chutné

    RumX members keep coming back to fresh pineapple, lively esters, young wood, and touches of banana in this 13-year LROK from Hampden and Velier. Expect big fruit and some wild energy—Daniel Chmelíček calls it "mladé, divoké a chutné," while Michael Schou points out its strong taste and that it “does not taste like most of the offer LROK mark Hampdens." The mouthfeel delivers bold pineapple and freshness, with wood that stays light, but several note the finish is on the shorter side.

    "A rum tasted at Whisky Live in Paris in 2024. A powerful pineapple nose, with light wood and esters. The pineapple is also very pronounced on the palate, but with freshness and elegant wood. The finish is short. A delicious rum, but difficult to rate. Should we note the pleasure it offers (great) or its (lack of) originality?"

    "Whisky Live Paris 2024 (trade fair evaluation, only overall rating and personal recommendation to buy): Overall still the best bottling of the second magnum series, but not outstanding. I don't have to have a bottle of it."

    "Kräftiger und ausdrucksstarker Hampden, der sich klar an die Spitze der Magnum-Reihe setzt. Markante Ester, reife tropische Früchte, dazu leichte Lösungsmittelnoten und gut eingebundener Alkohol. Bleibt lange präsent und macht Freude im Glas."
