Dark, spicy and creamy. The finish gives the Hampden depth and is reminiscent of a Pagos. The alcohol is not ideally integrated, therefore slight deductions. Otherwise exciting bottling!

Süßlich, holzig... kurz am Ende - total schräg - hab ich ein Hauch von Zwiebel?!

Riecht für mich in der Nase nach altem feuchten Keller, nicht so meins. Im Abgang tritt ein Geschmack hervor den ich leider nicht zuordnen kann, passt mir aber gar nicht. Von den % her hätte ich blind in etwa 60% getippt.

Finde den eigentlich sehr gelungen. All die selbsternannten Nerds hier mit den 70er Bewertungen sollten die Bewertungslatte nicht immer auf Hampdenebene hieven. Preislich interessant mit schönem Abgang und viel Jamaica 🇯🇲.
