“A solid Hampden, more on the round and pleasing side, which is quite good for now. However, it is not necessarily what I expect from Hampden. Also, this is my first Hampden of the mark <H>. In the nose with neat esters, fruity, tropical fruits and citrus, but also alcoholic pungent, sour with solvent. A bit lacking in spice here and unfortunately the nose doesn't pick me up as much overall. In the mouth then very oily, round and sweet. Esters are not as strong as expected, spice is also somewhat lacking here. Here I lack something the intensity and that certain something”
