    #5703 27.09.2025 Day one of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. This one was even more disappointing, but that's how things usually develop over time. The balance is ok, but the ABV could have been better integrated. Fruity with light wood and some spices as well as a hint of floral notes.

    Celui qui m'a le moins convaincu de la série mais quand même bien fait et agréable

    Elle se compose de quatre rhums Hampden, âgés de 4 à 9 ans, tous embouteillés à 60 % : DOK 2021 HGML 2018 <>H 2017 LROK 2016 S’il fallait en retenir un, ce serait le <>H 2017, doté d’une belle douceur naturelle, bien équilibré et fruité, même s’il manque un peu de longueur en bouche. Sur le plan gustatif, cette série n’a rien de révolutionnaire, mais elle se distingue par ses magnifiques étiquettes signées Cristina de Middel, qui subliment la distillerie Hampden à travers son regard artistique.
