How does this rum taste?
RumX members love this 1983 Hampden’s ester fireworks and overripe tropical fruit, showing remarkable freshness after 41 years of continental aging at cask strength 55.1%. Reviews highlight a creamy, naturally sweet palate with banana, marzipan, light smoke and hints of chocolate, leading to a long finish. Some note musty wood or slight astringency and a high price. A distinctive, limited release of 213 bottles for fans of classic Hampden funk.

Bin immer noch hin und her gerissen, wie ich diese Abfüllung finden soll, die Nase verspricht eigentlich schon viel, aber am Gaumen finde ich dann schon ein bißchen Holz/Fass bzw eine gewisse modrigkeit die ein wenig drüber ist. Genauso wie der Preis.
Incredibly cool 83 Hampden! Continental aging at its best. Tropical fruits, esters, bacon, roasted nuts and lots and lots of delicious overripe tropical fruits. Incredibly creamy and delicious. I really like it!
Messebewertung: Bin froh ihn in der CoR Masterclass verkostet zu haben. Ist eine super Hampden-Abfüllung, die sich sicherlich mit Hampdens der 90er vergleichen kann, aber das PLV einfach schon beim Messepreis scheitert. Ist am Ende nur was für Liebhaber
Lots of intensity and funk despite the long time in the cask. As for other 1983 Hampden bottlings, this combination of high ester levels and long continental aging is superb and very much to my liking. For this particular one, I think it is a bit over its peak. The finish shows quite a bit of musty wood notes, which overpower the lingering fruit notes.
