Young and wild on the nose. Very horny in the mouth. Wonderful combination of flavors. Top.
Yet another great release from this bottler. They have done well on many releases with their finishes on many desstillers. The nose is fruity with varnish and light wood, vanilla and iodine. The palate is intense and fruity with spices and wood. Leave to rest for all the flavours to be released. You can also add a few drops of water. The finish is very long and fruity with wood and spices. Lovely rum and the price to quality is very good.
Super. Once again grilled pineapple deluxe. Slightly alcoholic on the nose. Massive ester notes on the palate. The alcohol is no longer so noticeable for me here, and that at over 60% alc. A sweet cherry is added to the grilled pineapple both on the nose and on the palate. Very tasty. In direct comparison with other high-ester Hampdens, I had to downgrade the 2007 somewhat (-2).
Volle Ladung Ester! Geiler Stoff mit Ecken und Kanten, komplex mit viel Frucht. Bleibt sehr lange im Mund und schmeckt lange nach. Macht Lust auf mehr! Update 12.08.2025 und damit einige Jahre später: Immer noch großes Kino. Fetter öliger C<>H-Charakter, der gar nicht den Gaumen verlassen will. Top Mark, top Abfüllung!
