How does this rum taste?
A bold collision of peaty smoke and Hampden’s tropical funk is what RumX members talk about most. Expect overripe banana, pineapple, woody peat and a long, warm finish at 64.1% cask strength. Fans of peated whisky find it engaging, though some note the young age shows as sharp alcohol and peat masking the Hampden profile. Limited to 285 bottles, it’s a distinctive experiment the community discusses.

#4861 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time. Nose Intense, faint wood, ester, fruity, overripe, banana, spice, peat, light smoke, light glue. Palate Intense, ester, light wood, warm, fruity, overripe, banana, faint pineapple, faint nutts, peat, light smoke, dry. Finish Very long and warm, light wood, ester, faint roasted, light smoke, peat, pineapple, medium dry. This is a bomb if you like whisky in my mind, the peated/smoke notes are definitely there and I like smoke. Price to quality can be argued 😊
Onion , sulfurous, undrinkable
Ve vůni se mísí jamajská mísa tropického ovoce s peated whisky. Čím déle se nechá odležet, tím vice cítím jamajské tóny. Chuťově to není vůbec zlé. Příjemně nasládlé a ovocné, finiš se spíš projeví v závěru, který není zas tak intenzivní jak bych čekal. Na roční zrání a vysoké ABV docela v pohodě.
Tasted with live whisky. I really didn't find it interesting, it doesn't work, and you lose the hampden :(
