    How does this rum taste?

    The "The Younger (300cl) LROK" is a distinctive rum produced at Jamaica's Hampden distillery, bottled by Velier. This 5-year-old rum, distilled from molasses using a pot still, features an ABV of 47% and is marked by its LROK classification. Users appreciate its vibrant tropical fruit nose with dominant pineapple and ester notes, complemented by a hint of solvents and traditional funk. The palate mirrors these notes with a round, tropical fruit character underscored by subtle solvent nuances. Well-regarded for its balance, it has been celebrated both on its own and as a mixer in cocktails such as Espresso Martinis and Kingston Negronis. Its complex yet accessible profile makes it a noteworthy choice for rum enthusiasts.

    Made top notch espresso martinis and Kingston Negronis at my wedding. 🥳🍸

    In the glass, the rum has a golden color and a delicate aroma of mango, banana, pepper and varnish. The taste offers notes of pineapple, orange peel and cloves. I LOVE IT 😁

    Um yes, a good Hampden, I love Hampden. A nice fruity note on the nose and palate. And that's about it. Very tasty in any case, the alcohol is well integrated, really very tasty. Top rum.

    Yes, finally another very tasty Hampden Velier. I think it's really very good for the price. Tastes slightly fruity, a bit like ester. Alcohol well integrated. I can recommend it at any time.
