Review by alex
Excellent 👌 We can clearly feel the influence of the 2 distilleries, Lp and H. The dosage of both is perfect. Alcohol perfectly integrated, nice length, on yellow fruit. Very good juice 🤩🤩🤩
Review by BnBrt
Tasted at the same time as the ITP , my favorite of the two and a real winner for me. Quite an interesting nose I find, with petrol and esters very present but a sweeter smell behind that reminds me of just-baked pancakes. In the mouth, it coats the tongue and palate with a very pleasant sensation of sweetness. An explosion of tropical fruit balanced by the liveliness of the alcohol and notes that remind me of pepper. The finish is incredible, very long and very pleasant, with sweet notes of cooked wine, prune and vanilla. I'm left with an image of mulled wine.
Review by Romain de L
Really good ! Nose with over ripe fruits, chemicals, banana, some HPDN funk. Attack strong but balanced, with a lot of fruits - as in the nose. Very consistent. Very long and pleasant finish. A really good one !
Review by Filip Šikula
Esterová bomba. V nose hromada ovoce, které je velmi přezrálá a do toho trocha lepidla. Celé je to velmi štavnaté. Po napití klasická esterová jamaijka, která rozvibruje jazyk a naplní ústa ovoce. Krásný hřejivý závěr. Nádhera.
Review by Vincent D
Un poil derrière le itp/h pour moi. Mais top. Bombe d'esters, de fruits trop mûrs, d'ananas, de solvants, etc. C'est funky à souhait et ça reste très longtemps en bouche. C'est vraiment un très joli rhum.
Review by Pavel Spacek
... 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"
