How does this rum taste?
Fans praise an intense ester bomb of glue and overripe tropical fruit with well-integrated alcohol; critics miss depth and note some harsh, bitter or short-finish aspects. Consensus: a very good, wild DOK.
If you already enjoy Hampden and want to experience DOK in a relatively raw, fruit-forward form, this bottle delivers classic gluey funk and overripe fruit without added sugar.
Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers who dislike solventy, funky Jamaican profiles and prefer smooth, sweet, wood-driven sipping rums.

The goal? To offer you, the rum connoisseur, a place where you can choose with confidence—without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.








Ich liebe Hampden, vor allem die DOK's, Spitzenklasse. Auch hier tolle, Esterhaltige Nase, außerdem wieder tropische Früchte und etwas Klebstoff sowie Lösungsmittel. Am Gaumen auch viel Ester und tropische Früchte (wie gehabt Ananas und Banane).
JoA ne proper esterbombe halt 😅
Eine echte Esterbombe, über die ich ohne Rumauctioneer wohl nie gestolpert wäre. Von Nase bis Abgang schmeckt man Ester, Lösungsmittel und überreife Tropische Früchte, allen voran Ananas. Holznoten sind nur sehr dezent zu schmecken. Alkohol perfekt eingebunden.
