"The nose is the hammer here" — that's the recurring line, and it's true: intense pineapple, glue and olive-ester lift straight out of the glass. This is a 28-year Hampden JMC where the oak stays remarkably quiet for the age, so the yellow-fruit funk and a lovely marzipan note get all the room. The palate splits owners a touch — some find it a shade thin and sour next to that huge nose — but nearly everyone lands happy.
The community says- Intense ester nose
- Dominant pineapple
- Keep in mind: Palate thinner than nose

Pineapple-ester Hampden with a knockout nose Rated highly across the board as a rounded, balanced Hampden with a knockout nose; a few feel the palate stays thinner and more acidic than the aroma promises.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Wow, this is a great release. Despite the age the wood is extremely light giving the other flavours more space to bloom. I really like the marzipan on the back of your palate 😊 This is a very limited release for a Danish shop and they nailed it in my mind.
Review by RumTaTa
Tasted in direct comparison to RX11400. No difference in color. Nose: also hardly any difference, maybe a bit less funk and fruit here. Palate: alcohol better integrated, and a touch less funky/fruity. Overall the difference is marginal.
Review by Thunderbird
A typical representative of its kind... no surprises, just good... with perfectly integrated alcohol! Perfect
Review by Benoit Mahe
A very smooth, fruity, gourmet palate with no trace of wood despite 28 years in barrel. A slight lack of texture and length to make it all great. Still, a very fine selection.
Review by Pavel Spacek
... 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
Review by Johannes
Wow! A really good, well-rounded, perfectly balanced Hampden!
Review by Adrian Wahl
Very tasty HD 1993, but for me not as epic as others. For that, I miss fruit and the finish is not quite round. Many thanks for sharing to the birthday boy SaibotZtar
Review by Holle525
It is clearly behind the Nobilis Hampden 1993. The nose is really great but the taste lacks the Hampden punch. The nose saves the points here.
Review by Mentalo
1993 Hampden is not my favorite vintage. It is of course still high Hampden quality, but the vintage has a lot of acidity and the Romdeluxe has a little more than the 1993 from Salon du Rhum, for example.
Review by Martin Spooner
The nose is amazing. Really intense. Beautiful pineapple, olive ester notes. On the palate, quite funky. The pineapple is very dominant for me and really stays in the mouth for a while. Really nice drop.
Review by ThreeH
A Hampden with 28 years of aging! The Mark JMC is equivalent to a C<>H. The color is a nice clear yellow-gold. On the nose, you get the classic aromatic punch of a high ester Hampden. Glue, funk, fruit esters. I mainly get pineapple and yellow fruits. This is really good and tasty. On the palate, unfortunately, the rum can’t keep up with the nose for my taste. There’s a sour freshness. Then the full range of ester aromas. But the rum feels somewhat thin even though the aromatics are there. Along with the fruit flavors, there’s some woody spice. Surprisingly subtle for the age. The finish is medium-long on a mix of fruit, light glue, and mild wood spice. On the nose, definitely over 9, but on the palate, clearly below that for me.
