Pineapple, mango and green apple burst out of the glass, backed by butterscotch, glue and raw cookie dough — the classic Hampden ester package at full 65.8% strength. Several tasters call it a fruit bomb that's still smooth enough to sip, with a long finish where light oak and leather finally show up. Sour, sharp-edged start, then that buttery fruit takes over.
The community says- Tropical fruit bomb
- Hides the proof
- Keep in mind: Sharp acidic entry

How does Hampden Kill Devil Jamaica C<>H 2007 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Intense, fruity high-ester Hampden fruit bomb Loved by ester fans as a powerful, fruit-forward Hampden that hides its proof well. A few find the acidic, sharp-edged entry a touch aggressive and note it's less complex than the Flensburg 2007s.

Really good 2007 C<>H.Beautiful fruit esters .... nice buttery acidity ... Annas, papaya, mango banana green apple and a hint of marzipan. In the finish comes through some wood and light roasted aromas .Pleases me well.

Monumental. Complex. The overpowering ester fades very gently to give way to a spicy powder mix, exotic fruits - bananas that linger towards leather and hit hard while staying lively. ...

02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 5 Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Intense, light wood, esters, light grass, pineapple, glue, light tomato. Palate Warm, light spicy, esters, light wood, citrus, pineapple, light tannins, faint caramel, light glue. Finish Long and warm, ester, light wood, light glue, Extra note. There is a light malt presence in the profile.
Review by Master P
Really very nice fruity and intense 2007 Hampden. Nose with a lot of power, sweet, honey and esters. Taste buttery, yellow fruits and again honey sweetness. In the attack slightly peppery and wood that lasts long. Super powerful overall package
Review by Serge
Tasted against the two Duchess of the same vintage (rx10462 & 10861). The Kill Devil emerged as my favorite on the nose and palate. Only by 1 and 2 points respectively. But as the winner.
Review by Boletus
As expected, quite an ester bomb. Intense, astringent, and with many fermented tropical fruit aromas, it pounds the taste buds hard. Those who patiently chew through the sometimes sharp and sour start will be rewarded with the buttery and raw cookie dough side of the rum already announced in the smell. In the long and very nice finish, the wood also shows with subtle leather notes.
Review by Beancheese
Absolutely lovely rum. This is a high ester fruit bomb that explodes on the nose and palate but which is very smooth and nice to sip on. Sometimes these rums are more interesting than they are ‘drinkable’ but this one manages to do both very well.
Review by zabo
Basically a nice 2007 c <> H but since I even had a few in the glass during blind tasting, I unfortunately have to deduct a few points because despite standing time it is still a bit too alcoholic.
Review by Basti
Strong aromas of butter/almond bakery aromas paired with esters and tropical fruits. Very intense both on the nose and on the palate.
Review by Johannes
Very fruity, wonderful Hampden! Just as you would expect from a 2007!
Review by Mentalo
Hampden consistently delivers high quality. The Kill Devil bottling has fewer wood notes (more pronounced in the finish), but more acidity. Not quite as complex as the two 2007s from Flensburger.
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Very similar to the Flensburg from the German Rum Festival. Really tasty. Great high ester. For cocktails, it also really hits the spot. Whether it is worth the 149€, everyone must decide for themselves. I ordered a second bottle. Great Continental matured C<>H.
Review by X-Savior
On The Rocks: On the nose it has very strong alcohol with dried fruit and floral notes with mild hints of spice. Taste reveals a strong a alcoholic presence with immediate strong spice notes followed closely with prominent floral and fruit flavours with a medium sweetness. There is some underlying woody notes with leather to round off this very delicious and complex rum. Finish is medium length with fading off leather and spice notes. This is an exceptional rum that is among the best we have ever tasted. Beautiful sipper. I highly suggest smaller quantity as a sipper, I had a couple Oz with a few large ice cubes and it was difficult to finish… it is complex and strong making it not the most ideal evening glass to sip. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose mild leather with mild fruit and floral notes. Still getting some light underlying spice notes as well on the nose. Taste has a confusing mix of strong floral and fruit notes with spices. You lose the alcoholic hit leaving the rum feeling off balance. Finish is short with dried fruit. I suggest only drinking this release on the rocks because mixing it throws the profile off-balance. It shines through the Pepsi Zero like few other rums.
Review by DangerSnert
On the rocks: This is one impressive rum so much going on all at once. Definitely can taste the high alcohol content but its not overwhelming. Its a delightful culmination of flavors with a medium complex finish. Mixed Pepsi Zero. Nosing: Still have that great sweet smell, leathery, fruit and floral. Subdued alcohol smell. Taste: Retains its strong taste, losses it’s alcoholic hit and medium finish going to a shorter finish.
Review by Shaun Abel
