CDI Hampden Jamaica DOK

The Jamaica DOK captivates with tropical fruit notes but may seem a bit toned down in intensity, making it an approachable take on Hampden’s high-ester style.

Tropical and smooth, but not very robust.

    How does this rum taste?

    • Rich tropical fruit notes
    • Smooth, easy-drinking
    • Limited release from Hampden

    The Jamaica DOK from Hampden distillery, selected and bottled by Compagnie des Indes, is a unique release distilled in 2009 using molasses and a pot still. Aged for 9 years with an ABV of 44%, this rum is praised for its high-ester profile marked by rich pineapple, banana, and glue notes. It offers a blend of tropical fruit aromas, albeit with some dividing opinions regarding its intensity and body. While some appreciate its smooth, easy-sipping nature, others note it may lack the expected robustness of a DOK rum. Limited to just 471 bottles, this rum still captures the essence of Hampden’s renowned high-ester character.

    "am very positively surprised how well the typical DOK flavors still come through despite the dilution to 44%! easy sipping and very tasty and harmonious. typical broadside of pineapple, glue, nail polish, brioche dough, lime citrus jam and buttery honey banana with lime juice over it. mega drinkable and delicious!"

    "Im Grunde stehe ich auf diese DOK Profile, aber dieses hat mir gar nicht so gut gefallen wie gedacht. Leider einer der weniger guten DOKs die ich im Glas hatte. Aber von Preis/Leistung denoch mehr als akzeptabel. Trotzdem mir ein wenig zu dünn."

    "A rum that leaves me somewhat undecided. On the one hand, the typical high-ester flavors of a DOK (pineapple, glue, etc.), on the other hand, by the dilution but somewhat powerless. Is this already an easy sipper? For Hampden fans, perhaps really..."
