“Abgesehen vom Preis, finde ich diese Abfüllung ganz gelungen. Eine angenehme und ausgewogene Mischung aus Frucht. Würze und Holzigkeit mit ein wenig Funkiness ist da vorhanden. Alkohol ist gut eingebunden und trägt die Aromen recht ordentlich. Der Abgang könnte etwas länger anhalten”

“Mit dem Vogel auf dem Etikett sicher überpreist, aber ich finde diesen LFCH doch lecker. Sehr dichte und süß dunkle Nase mit viel Früchten wie Orangen, Kirschen und grünen Bananen. Am Gaumen dann eher Mandel mit Vanille und Holz mit Banane und Leim.”

“Die Nase passt mir an diesem Rum am besten. Zuerst süsse Schokolade und Kokosnuss, dann vermehrt Fass und getrocknete Früchte, Früchtekompott und Dunder. Im Mund Kernobst, Karamell-Flan und rote Früchte. Abgang reltaiv trocken und holzig. Holt mich leider nicht sehr ab. Zu holzig und wenig Hampden. Hat für mich etwas von einem Mittelamerikanischem Rum.”

“Entspannter Relax Hampden. Inzwischen gutes PLV, die Preise heutzutage sind ja leider geisteskrank geworden.”

“Comes fresh on the nose, slightly vinegar, with solvent and citrus. Caramelized orange with vanilla and honey, dark cherry, something in the direction of dried apricot. Woody-smoky, oak, a bit buttery and creamy. Pleasant and round. The alcohol is super integrated. Nice spicy-fruity palate. Starts a bit bitter-salty, then some marzipan sweetness followed by a hint of apricot before the anise flavor spreads. I think I can also find thyme lightly. It seems almost roasty-malty in between. A collector's rum, but actually good!”

“Nice low ester Hampden. The nose is very fruity, while the taste brings a lot of burnt and charred notes.”

“Pleasant nose, but it’s instantly clear this is low on esters. The rum smells sweet, dark and malted, with near no medicinal notes. The fruits consist primarily of fresh coconut, accompanied by a little yellow banana and blackberry notes. Apricot jam, caramel, vanilla and oak provide even more sweetness. Some necessary balancing comes from a sprinkle of sharp vinegar. Quite different on the palate; much wilder than the nose suggested. Strong flavours of banana, green and yellow, followed by pineapple juice and more apricot jam. The sugar is less burnt and leans more towards marzipan or frosting. It’s sweet with vanilla, yet slightly bitter with malt. There’s subtle medicinal notes like hardened glue and last week’s solvents. Ends peppery and really prickles the tongue for a short minute with some spicy chili. The finish is medium in length and returns to long waves of coconut, caramel and cream.”

“Nose initially closed, but opens with time and increasingly releases aromas of trop. Fruits and solvent free with a slight glue note in the background. On the palate predominantly trop. Fruits with a slight floral touch.”
