A Caribbean blend that is rather on the mild side, more yellow fruits, maybe papaya...at least on the nose and palate. I only perceive esters fleetingly. On the palate, the fruit also recedes significantly ... in the finish, the spice predominates and a little bitterness at the very end. This bottling doesn't quite convince me
High Ester blend Jamaica, Barbados, Belize, mind. 6 Jahre tropisch…an der Nase vergorene und kandierte, tropische Früchte. Belize eher im Hintergrund. Am Gaumen dann mehr auf der würzigen Seite, im Abgang eine Nougat-Süsse. Ich finde den blend gut gelungen, zumal er echt fair bepreist war (für die Festival-Teilnehmer).
Holt mich an der Nase nicht wirklich ab. Wirkt unausgewogen und mir fällt es schwer einzelne Notes rauszupicken. Am Gaumen etwas Lösungsmittel und Marzipan, aber leider auch etwas zu bitter und nichtssagend. Haut mich nicht vom Hocker.
Typische Hampden Noten: gelbe und tropische Früchte, gegrillte Ananas. Schöne Ester. Der Rum wirkt in sich sehr harmonisch, was doch auch mit Blick auf das vergleichsweise junge Alter überrascht. Alkohol ist gut eingebunden.
