How does this rum taste?
Fans of Hampden's signature funk appreciate this LROK for its bold tropical fruit notes, especially pineapple and banana, with a layer of esters and a splash of vanilla. Reviewers often enjoy it as an accessible sipper or a relaxed evening drink, calling it a smooth gateway to Jamaica's pot still style. While some find it softer than expected, most agree it's complex, inviting, and a popular choice among Hampden enthusiasts.

Nice rum, but too similar to hampden the younger and the 50 euro difference is a tease to the consumer. Unfortunately lately Velier is releasing overpriced bottlings where you pay for the brand and less for the quality of the product. Personally I would never buy it taking into account that the overproof can be found at 80 euros and this at 110 and the younger at 59.
Retasting today and still love it :-) A very good Hampden so happy I bought 2 bottles at a very reduced price. Price to quality is good.
... Hampden, the legendary Jamaican distillery that produces rum as well as alcohol for perfume. In all the rums from this distillery you will taste wild esters, after which your whole organism will soak up the smell of golden tropical fruits - mango, papaya, pineapple, peach. One of the "must try before you die" rums
So you smell Hampden right away. In the taste and finish smoky spicy notes overlay the tropical fruits, so you can not really taste concrete fruits out.
