Auto-translatedEDIT : belles notes herbacées et notes de thé également après oxydation. Déguste rapidement au salon Rhum Fest Paris, notes à revoir. Ananas, beurre, orange peut être un peu de bois. Un profils peu esterisé mais très gourmand avec un alcool bien intégré. Tous le monde était assez bluffé par ce mark peu connu !
Auto-translatedTasting at WLP 2025. JMLR for one of Hampden's well-known marks, but under a different name. It's a LROK, then, with few esters compared to the distillery's larger brands. 👃 More than rotten macerated fruit (pineapple, banana), and above all an expressive note of cinnamon apple, very pleasant. It's buttery, pastry-like and spicy, all with esters in the background. 😋 Alcohol very well integrated, one wonders where the watts are. Sweet esters, salty vanilla, spices, brine, light green olive. Tropical fruit in the background and still that lovely apple cinnamon flavor. ⛳ Warm, surprisingly sweet, buttery vanilla, pimento, bed of macerated fruit. 💡 The devil's not far away with this 66.6 in alcohol content and yet, the strong point of this selection is indeed its integration. Hats off to it. Otherwise, a rather conventional hampden, not very complex.
Auto-translatedRunder vollmundiger hampden mit dem gängigen Profil am Gaumen: Ananas, Ester mit ein wenig Holz. Schön ausbalanciert. Sicher ein besserer Kandidat seiner Gattung. Gutes Preis-Leistungs-Niveau. Kann man kaufen.
