Whisky AGE Hampden The Whisky Blues JMH 1992
Olive brine, ripe tropical fruit and a streak of polish — this is a 29-year-old continental-aged Hampden, and it shows. Most tasters get mango, banana, citrus and a peppery warmth, with one calling it "my favorite olive water." The high ABV sits remarkably well. A couple of people wish it had more depth; one found the funky, mushroom-olive side just too much.
- Well-integrated alcohol
- Tropical fruit burst
- Long warm finish

Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Old, fruity Hampden with olive funk A loved old Hampden — fruity, complex, with that funky olive-and-polish edge. The recurring note is that it's lighter on depth than other vintages, and the savory side splits people.

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Seeehr seltsamer 92er vintage Hampden. Weiß nicht woher diese säuerlich, pelzige Pilz und Oliven Note herkommt aber das ist leider gar nicht mein Fall... Für Fans von mehr gemüsigen und salzigen Noten wiederum sicherlich sehr spannend. Mir etwas too much.
Review by Oliver
Very good Hampden. Lacks some of the depth of the 1990 vintage. Tropical fruit, nice dryness and spice. Fun to drink!
Review by Leo Krüper
High end kontinentaler Hampden. Kaum etwas auszusetzen. Komplexer Abgang mit etwas Säure/grünen Früchten. Tolle Abfüllung.
Review by Mentalo
Der Alkohol ist überragend integriert. Die tropische Früchte kommen wunderbar zur Geltung. Etwas Holz. Gutes Wechselspiel aus Süße und Säure. Aber es fehlt etwas an Tiefe. Auch im Vergleich zu anderen Abfüllung des Jahrgangs.
Review by Basti
Sehr geile Nase, die immer wieder neue Aromen freigibt. Insgesamt ziemlich fruchtig und rund. Gefällt mir sehr gut. Alkohol top eingebunden.

The best rum of the day 🥃
Review by Alex1981
my favorite olive water, getting better with more air in the bottle. great complexity with rotten fruits, vegetal notes, milk chocolate, creaminess, some wood but mich less than expected after so many years. everything is well integrated and it shows that these old Hampdens can carry the age easily. fantastic!
Review by Mopar Rules
an explosion of fruity notes both on nose and palate with only a hint of polish. A light and not heavy rum perfect for summer evenings. Still miss some complexity and depth
