Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Absolute board with a hammer UVP! Incredibly beautiful nose of vanilla custard, tropical fruit salad, especially pineapple and honeydew melon, glue and a little cream caramel and lemon zest. The taste is also insanely deliciously sweet and fruity with lemon curd, coffee beans/cappuccino, pineapple chutney, tropical fruit and plenty of glue. This thing is really fun and the alcohol is perfectly integrated! Fuck the "standard" great house series, this is the real shit going on! 🤣🤤🥂🇯🇲💥💣 I would have really liked a bottle for special occasions!
Review by Leo Krüper
Great 2007 HD Reminds me of the green 2020 Great House and in a positive sense. Lots of yellow fruit, lemon scent, ester is still within limits. Alcohol super integrated for the high %. Great PLV and beautiful bottle design. I'd love a bottle of this. In direct comparison with the sister version 66.9%, I like it much better.
Review by SaibotZtar
Very tasty... beautifully fruity and powerful... The full fruit basket paired with glue, marzipan and papaya. Simply awesome! PLV was also super fair here 👍 Unfortunately my stock is running low 😩 which makes me a little sad. In May Tai also a fruity grenade.
Review by cigares
A very expressive yet well-balanced nose, with a lactic, toffee-like ferment that softens the rather lively esters. On the palate, it's much less expressive, with the wood still present and a lactic edge. Then the aromas become more assertive, pineapple and esters. The finish is shorter than expected, on slightly bitter wood. I much preferred its brother, RX10462, for its overall complexity and delicious finish.
Review by DomM
Nose: a hint less acidity and more cask and marzipan notes vs. The Duchess sister cask. Palate: less adstringent than its sister / good balance of chemical and fruity notes

Edit: Crosstasting C◇H 1st Kill Devil 2. FRC C◇H 3. the Duchess 4. TBRC Frankenstein 5. the Whisky Jury Very tasty representative. In comparison with its competitors, it unfortunately lacked a little for a better rating.
Review by Timo Groeger
Great Hampden, has a lot of tropical fruit on the nose and palate, especially banana and pineapple. Esters are also recognizable, but not too pronounced. Also a bit sticky on the palate. Very tasty Hampden.
Review by Basti
Die Nase typisch mir viel Ester, etwas Klebstoff, ordentlich Vanille(-Pudding), Backaroma, Marzipan und Ananas. Am Gaumen ist alles wiederzufinden was die Nase versprochen hat. Insgesamt Recht viel Vanille und wenig Frucht. Gefällt mir gut!
Review by Johannes
This is once again a board! Typical 2007 on a high level!
Review by Adrian Wahl
This awesome HD 2007 nose 🥰. For me but already somewhat below the benchmark JMC. PLV but outstanding.
Review by Boletus
A high ester powerhouse with a wonderfully integrated alcohol content, lots of fermented fruit aromas and an unobtrusive but recognizable toasted wood entry. After initial astringency, a very pleasant, creamy and buttery mouthfeel develops in the mouth. Yummy!
Review by Thunderbird
A typical Hampden, funky, ester pineapple etc.. and that's it! But to get a top rating it lacks the finesse
Review by Christian Rudt
In the nose first A lot of esters, solvents and now that he stood long covered (I was asleep ðð¥±) also the tropical fruits come through in the nose. These were immediately very present on the palate, with plenty of time in the glass the whole is clearly spicier, I have a few herbs briefly some menthol and then a nice warm finish where the over 66 "v become noticeable but very pleasant if you stick to small sips.
Review by Serge
Verkostet gegen den duchess (rx10462) und den Kill Devil (rx11490) Kill Devil ist für mich der gewinner.gefolgt vom 10462. Der hier hat leider den letzten Platz gemacht. Aber wirklich nur relativ kleine Unterschiede.
