How does this rum taste?
Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 53 <>H is a Hampden that wears its marker’s DNA on its sleeve—an ester-forward, intensely tropical profile packed with pineapple, banana, and "fruchtige süße, etwas honigmelone" (Master P). The nose is loaded with "Nagellack und Lösungsmittel" (GuybrushThreepwood), but the spirit surprises with well-integrated alcohol for its 65.6%, a point consistently noted by reviewers. The palate fills the mouth with tropical fruits and a solid backbone of funk and bitterness, while a thread of wood and dry finish keeps things honest. For some, it's "eine wahre Esterbombe mit viel Ananas" (Christoph), bringing complexity and enjoyable power, though lively bitternotes and a touch of heat linger in the finish.

Super aromatic, everything I expect from Hampden
Top Abfüllung, hat alles zu bieten, was ich an Hampden so liebe. Funk, Tiefe, Würze
A very ingenious Jamaica rum! The alcohol is very soft despite the 65.6%!
Pure glue and esters on the nose, which are intense but not pungent. First of all, exactly what makes a good Hampden rum. The taste is also a real ester bomb with lots of pineapple. Light wood notes come into play, especially in the finish. Alcohol very well integrated.
