Cadenhead‘s Hampden JMLR LROK 2002
Highly praised as a powerful Hampden LROK with huge tropical fruit, natural sweetness and a long, characterful finish. Intense alcohol and slight imbalance are noted but don’t overshadow overall enjoyment.
Fans of high-ester Jamaican funk who enjoy intense, cask strength tropical fruit and don’t mind a slightly wild, sharp profile.

25.08.2025 Retasting and I still find it pretty good and the price at release was also pretty good. ------------------- 09.05.2016 Evening out with colleagues and good rums. Notes Light in colour. Nose Fresh, wood, roasted, fruity, banana, earthy. Palate Round, fresh, wood, light roasted, fruity, citrus, naturally sweet. Finish Medium to long, wood, light roasted, pineapple, citrus, faint herbs.
A brute fruit bomb. Intense in both the fruit and alcohol impact. Overall a little too unbalanced.
A little lacking in power on the nose. A little too sour on the tongue? Otherwise quite ok
טעימה אצל חבר ברגיל, מארק מעולה. בקבוק דיי ישיר אבל איכותי מאוד. האמפדן קונטיננטלי ברמה גבוהה. כל הטרופיות. מלח. זיתים. בננה. כל כך מטעים למארק הזה Lrok יופי של רום לא מורכב מידיי אבל אינטנסיבי ומאוד מאוד טעים.
