How does this rum taste?
Sherry-driven, powerful Hampden sipper
If you like Hampden and sherried finishes, this leans hard into Oloroso and dark fruit while keeping the esters in check—great if you want power without full-on funk overload.
Those sensitive to high ABV, looking for an easygoing sweet rum, or wanting a very funky, ester-forward Hampden without heavy cask influence.

Big Hampden 8 Marks Collection x CoR C<>H Cross Tasting: Sherry aromas again clearly perceptible, but weaker than in the 24086. Alcohol better integrated than in the other bottlings of the series.
Auto-translatedOn the nose: Quite heavy and deep. Strong cask influence. Esters are in the background. Fruity. Cherry. Young wood. Taste: Thick,heavy body with cask influence. Esters in the background. Then it goes deeper on the dark fruits notes, raisin. The high abv is present but integrated. Finish: Medium-long finish. Nutty, fruity notes. Dry. This rum really showcases the heavy sherrycask influence on the rum. The quality is good, but it is pretty one dimentional.
Oloroso Finish schon gut wahrnehmbar. Aber der C<>H könnte etwas besser mit dem Finish vermählt sein.
