"For me, still a touch before the C<>H, although that can be justified m.E. only exclusively subjective and is dependent not least on the form of the day. How much better tropically stored Hampden still goes probably remains to be seen - but for me this is definitely already absolute top class."

"Wow ... really very, very tasty. A real cracker. Update: in a duel against the 6y0 hgml Spirits in the sky, it defends its throne of the Hampdens. Fuller-bodied, warmer and less acidic Tasted again and still delicious. The taste also keeps very well in the opened sample bottle."

"Papaya and strained banana on marzipan. The feeling when the rum reaches the mouth is a true orgasm of the senses. Lots of fruit, slightly candied, dance up and down on the tongue and do not want to disappear. The fruit notes continue deep into the palate and are wonderfully rounded off by wood and tannins."
