TAST'TOE Hampden MDEN Jamaican Rum HLCF 1998 23yr 57,2%

RX9950 Very good 275 bottles Under 250€

MDEN Jamaican Rum HLCF is a remarkable 23-year-old rum originating from Hampden Distillery in Jamaica. Produced by TAST'TOE in 1998 and distilled from molasses, this 57.2% ABV limited release comprises only 275 bottles. Esteemed for its aromatic ester, orange peel, pineapple, earthy, and bergamot notes, it delivers a pleasantly peppery, heavy, salty, smoky, and espresso flavor profile. Rum enthusiasts may detect a departure from Hampden's classic style, but they appreciate the engaging warm and fire-toasted finish nonetheless. This unique Jamaican rum has won over our RumX community members for its delicate balance and immersive taste.
