Limited to 170 bottles, it's known for a nose dominated by banana, caramel, and estery hints. Tasting notes reveal robust pineapple and banana flavors, with undertones of cinnamon and vanilla. Despite its high alcohol content, users appreciate its flavor complexity, remarking on its initial warmth rather than overpowering burn. The intense ester profile and fruity aromas make it stand out among connoisseurs, though its extreme potency suggests cautious sipping or mixing.

This one is a heavy hitter and hits your nose right after opening the bottle. Super high ABV that is well integrated and i get a hint of the Madeira Cask it was finished on. Add a drop or two of water to release all the flavours.
Day 15 of the Samples de Luxe calendar. An overwhelming nose of esters and fruit (banana, pineapple). Burnt caramel and smokiness. The palate is sharper than the nose. I think of a heat-crushed distillery with steam engines and overripe fruit. The finish is consistent with the palate, the bitterness increasing. The empty glass gives other aromas. Impossible to imagine an ABV beyond Stroh Rum! Impressive alcohol integration!
A heavyweight in the "who has the highest alcohol content" category, yet remarkably integrated. The nose is concentrated on exotic fruits and citrus, esters, glue, solvents and varnish like any good Hampden from the DOK mark, but not only. A spicy brisée on vanilla and pepper caresses the nostrils with a hint of caramel and a touch of olive. A Hampden that diversifies with a beautiful aromatic concentration. It's impossible to detect the degree of alcohol, however extreme, on the nose. The attack on the palate is explosive, with a veritable deflagration. Extremely powerful, the juice starts with intense phenolic notes, a spicy heat of pepper, vanilla and cinnamon, overripe exotic fruits (banana, pineapple), barrel notes and silky tannins. It's rounder after two hours of aeration. Beyond that, it's a well-crafted Hampden with plenty of aromas for its extreme level. The finish is grippy, astringent, warm and fermentative. Mango, papaya and pineapple provide a fruity framework, while cinnamon, anise and licorice lend a spicy bitterness that's not unpleasant. Vanilla and caramel round out the whole. A well-crafted rum, far from the alcoholic cliché. Nevertheless, it should be used sparingly in tasting and is not recommended for sensitive palates.
Viel Ester, das war’s dann auch schon. Statt pur trinken kann lieber einige aromatische Owh und Lfch damit pimpen.
