    #4774 10.07.2024 Sampling a bit at home. Nose Light wood, fruity, banana, overripe, faint caramel, light nutts, spice, ester. Palate Oily, warm, round, light wood, fruity, light nutts, light caramel, faint chocolate, faint floral, banana, ester. Finish Medium long, light wood, light caramel, faint citrus, ester, light banana. The empty glass has light herbs and sweet toffee. Needs to rest for a good while to settle properly. I'd prefer this rum in a mixer and that's going to be my next experiment.

    Very thin, not really meaningful in terms of taste. I can't taste Hampden, rather Worthy Park or Monymusk.

    Very good to learn about Jamaica

    A very good rum, which I enjoy drinking from time to time.
