People who chase Hampden at its most feral will grin at this one. Glue, nail polish and overripe banana hit first, then smoke and leather from an Islay-style cask, with a long, warm, citrus-and-bacon finish. It's only 18 months old and cask-strength — yet almost everyone marvels that the 86% is scarcely noticeable. Wild, young and unapologetic.

Feral young Hampden, 86% ester bomb The verdict is loud and mostly delighted: a beast that funk lovers adore, with the 86% shockingly well integrated. A few wish it had a couple more years.

19.12.2025 Retasting and I still like it a lot. -------- 29.10.2022 whisky & Rum Festival, nice event with a few friends and a few of our own bottles. This was a beast until it had rested for a good while. Very fruity and intense with a nice smoky note throughout the profile. Very long and warm finish.

Phew, that's some strong stuff. In view of the framework data, a lot was to be expected, but the intense smoky note is still surprising - and unfortunately in a negative sense. For me, it's not very enjoyable, even if I like extremes; the dominant smokiness in combination with the raw fruit esters and the provocatively high alcohol content is clearly too much for true drinking pleasure. However, those who like unfiltered numbers may find their way here. Unfortunately, I'm out.
Review by cigares
Day 4 of RumX rarities. Funk and overripe tropical fruit with a slight smokiness on the nose. Alcohol a little pungent on first taste, flavors struggling to emerge. The smoke is more pronounced than on the nose. The finish is very nice, long and fruity, elegant despite the high alcohol content. I had bet on a super aged Hampden and this is a very young rum. On the other hand, the alcohol is impressively integrated, because if you smelled a high ABV, it's impossible to imagine 86%! I love this rum for its long, elegant and powerful finish. The empty glass is a splendor.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A rum of the extreme, as Hampden knows how to make them. The nose kicks off with a discharge of esters, solvents and glue that neutralizes the nostrils, before releasing some very ripe but hard to distinguish exotic fruit scents. A smoky touch emerges after aeration (from the cask?), followed by banana, pineapple and mango. This is clearly a profile that's no laughing matter. The first thing that strikes you on the palate is the power of the funk and the fruit. Exotic fruits, red fruits (strawberry) with a hint of harlequin candy and phenolic notes are very present. Leather and smoke add to the tannins and a touch of vinegar, giving the profile an astringent edge. However, another noteworthy fact is that at no point could such a high alcohol content have been detected in the glass: the 86% is incredibly well integrated into the whole. The finish is extremely long, the whisky cask making an impact with a peaty, smoky edge that's on a par with the funky, astringent notes. Tropical fruits add a touch of "heavy sweetness" on the finish. A bluff rum, punchy and extravagant.
Review by Stefan Persson
Got a sample of this 18-Months old Hampden, released by the Danish IB RomDeLuxe, from RumX. Everything from the initial scents to the long finish breaths funkiness. It’s esters, glue, overripe fruits, banana, smoke and leather all along the way.
Review by mto75
the #4 from the Rarities calendar. A mega brute bottling according to the framework data. The very light color in the glass already reveals that it has not been matured for long. The nose is already full of esters, glue, some baking mix... the Islay cask comes out at the back. Roasty, tart citrus fruits, smoky on the palate. Surprisingly, I don't find the 86% ABV at all like firewater (I hope that's not already the dulling with all the cask strength rums...). In any case, an exciting experiment.
Review by Enriko Špinler
Finally, I managed to get my hands on this beast. The alcohol is very well integrated, but you will definitely feel the strength warming your chest. It brutally kicks in, but then rewards you with a perfect taste and finish. Nose – glue, solvent, smoke, tropical fruit, overripe fruit Taste – intense, powerful, esters, tropical fruit, marzipan Finish – very long, warm, smoky, citrus, bacon
Review by Timo Groeger
This one was really missing, no kidding... Jamaica, go ahead and roast me, but yeah, at least this is a Hampden :) One of the best distilleries of all time. Yeah, that's how it is now, thanks to the Oelde water tower.
Review by Jarek
Interesting, but not quite my taste. I wouldn't need a whole bottle of it 😉 Alcohol very dominant, otherwise Patex on fruit.
Review by Oliver
High ester and pure punch. The smoke associations add a great twist to the finish. Those who like it extreme will get their money's worth here.
Review by TheJackDrop
What a mess, never been hit like that before, surely the watts but also a beautiful bouquet of fruits and esters... and that richness!! Wow. In summary, my tasting notes: On the nose: Tropical fruits, very ripe, solvents, glue, funky, banana On the palate: Smoky, tropical fruits, very ripe, ester, strawberry, banana, coconut The finish rather leaning towards: Citrus, smoky, harsh astringent
Review by Adrian Wahl
Very interesting experience. I love peaty whiskies, so I'm a good candidate for the rum. Certainly a bit too young and also way too expensive, but a cool experience. I give 85/100
Review by Skyfly
Probably the highest proof rum I've had in the glass so far. Crazy that you can still drink something like this and the rum is still so flavor intense! Tons of esters, tropical fruits, nail polish and fermented notes. On the palate and finish a bit smoky, which leaves my whisky associations. Alcohol brilliantly integrated!
Review by Pavel Spacek
Clasical young Jamaica, but the ending is OMG. It squeezed my tongue and add many tanins to the taste ... Hampden, legendarni jamajska destilerka, ktera krome rumu produkuje take alkohol do parfemu. Ve vsech rumech z teto destilerky ucitite divoke estery, po kterych cely vas organizmus nasakne vuni zluteho tropickeho ovoce - manga, papaji, anansu, broskvi. Jeden z rumu, ktere "must try before die"
Review by Serge
Tasted in the RumX Rarities Tasting. Lots of ester, lots of glue and solvent plus overripe fruit. Alcohol really not as noticeable as the specs suggest. Apart from that, it didn't quite pick me up ... I'm missing some maturity here
Review by Manuel
With its 86% alcohol content, this is an absolute boss in terms of taste. Great, pleasant ester influences on the nose, not too strong. The alcohol is barely perceptible on the nose. The high alcohol content is also very well integrated in the taste. Very funky. A good finisher.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,4:On the nose, intense, funky with medicinal notes like esters, glue, nail polish, some solvents, funky, fermented, overripe tropical fruits like banana and pineapple, citrus fruits, concentrated, smoky, grassy with hay, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, dairy notes arise, like cheese, buttery, molasses is vegetal with olive, the fruits are slightly pungent, rotten, the wood is spicy, bacon and caramel join. 8,3:On the palate, the attack is intense, strong, funky with medicinal notes like esters and glue, solvents, fruity with fermented tropical fruits like banana and pineapple, citrus fruits and strawberry, slightly astringent, dairy notes join, buttery, molasses is vegetal with briny olive, earthy with cigar, peat notes, grassy with hay, mineral.The wood is spicy with allspice, smoky. 8,4:The finish is long, dry&tannic with meaty wood notes, pastry, spicy with allspice, smoky, medicinal with esters, glue, heavy, strong, funky, fruity with fermented tropical and citrus fruits, sour, molasses is earthy with peat, whisky like..

Awesome, I love these high-proof, unaged Jamaicans from RomDeluxe.
Review by Verner Sørensen
Rocket fuel, a bit smoky and a taste that just keeps going and going, I could still taste it the next morning.
Review by zabo
I gave it a little more time in the glass because of the high ABV. Yes, it's quite okay, lots of funk in the mouth, as well as brown Patex glue. But a few more years in a good cask would probably have brought a little more here. Unfortunately, it doesn't really convince me. A nice drop, but for the price I wouldn't even think of buying a bottle. Typical Romdeluxe pricing. The finish is far too sharp for me.
Review by Adrian Adame
White with a yellowish tint. Nose strongly esterified, typical Jamaican. Taste % strong, esterified, Jamaican.
