How does this rum taste?
RumX members love the big funky ester hit with overripe tropical fruit and a splash of red fruits. Despite 67.9%, the alcohol is well controlled, giving a warm, balanced sip with natural sweetness. Expect glue/varnish and creamy yogurt on the nose, with faint marzipan and a fresh menthol lift. Limited to 229 bottles, this Hampden pick is a rising community favorite.

#5710 27.09.2025 Day one of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. This one hit the nail in my mind. Again my favourite mark and this one is pretty good and the price tage is pretty good. Very fruity and lots of esters mixed with some glue and light marzipan. Warm yet well balanced on the palate with faint marzipan and natural sweetness.
A rum tasted at Whisky Live in Paris in 2025. A nose of overripe fruit, glue, varnish, citrus and fresh, stewed fruit. A perfectly balanced nose, despite the esters. The palate doesn't start out too strong, then all the fruit and other aromas rise. Exotic fruits are in full force here. The finish is rather short, with most of the aromas fading away and a few lingering for a long time.
Among the fine discoveries at Whisky Live 2025, this Jamaican rum stands out. The perfectly controlled alcohol gives way to powerful aromas: rich, funky tropical compote, supported by an unexpected hint of red fruit and strawberry. A captivating, gourmet balance.
🥃 Hampden <>H 2017 - 67.9 % Another fine selection. Compared to the C<>H 2021, there are more glue and varnish notes, but I find it a little less interesting - not least because of a shorter finish.
