If you already know Hampden's DOK mark and want a gentler, easier version of it, this Bristol bottling fits. It carries the classic markers — pineapple, overripe tropical fruit, banana and a whiff of varnish — but at 47.5% it reads soft, round and a touch thin. Lovely on the nose; several tasters just wish it hit harder on the palate.
The community says- Classic Hampden nose
- Ripe tropical fruit

How does Bristol Hampden Jamaica Trelawney County DOK 2009 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Soft, fruity DOK that lacks punch A properly fruity, ester-driven DOK that most find pleasant and easy to sip. The recurring gripe: it's a bit watered-down and lacks the punch of full-proof Hampden releases.

A high ester content is felt during the tasting, but I think it feels pleasant - an explosion of fruit flavor that lingers on the palate for a long time.

Relatively light color. Smell of fruit, light spices, only a little wood. Taste-wise, I naturally notice esters, dried fruits, pineapple, banana, vanilla, a bit of wood and somewhat thin and slightly sour (which I can't define) despite 47.5%. But very smooth and a pleasant finish. Certainly not the best Jamaican rum in the world but still pleasing to my palate.
Review by zabo
A 2009 DOK, the legendary vintage with some really good bangers. Unfortunately, I have to admit that the Bristol bottlings can't keep up with the competition. Here, too, the rum seems a little thin to me, unfortunately.
Review by Timo Groeger
Second to last, a Hampden just as you imagine it. Again the tropical fruits pineapple and banana, as well as of course esters, but also a bit of glue is noticeable. Personally, I find it a bit watered down though, it’s missing some punch :(
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
24.02.2023 Enjoying some samples at home with a good friend. Colour Light in colour. Nose Intense, faint wood, folvents, floral, fruity, overripe, light cherry, spice, faint mango. Palate Medium intense, balanced, round, light wood, light solvent, ginger, fruity, overripe, light banana, light floral. Finish Long and warm, balanced, fruits, light mango, light floral, light wood.
Review by Benoit Mahe
The nose sums up everything we love about Hampden. The classic markers are well present with a perfect balance and without any mark of alcohol. Without surprise the mouth is not very powerful. A DOK all in delicacy what. We keep all the same the markers of the distillery. The finish is a bit short, slightly bitter and spicy. After having tasted it again I raise the note a bit because the nose is really fabulous and I found the mouth longer and less flat than the first time.
Review by DomM
Nice one. The low ABV makes the DOK quite enjoyable from the start. Obviously this can not compete with the full proof releases.
Review by Buddudharma
Nice DOK profile, but at least 10% is missing to give the rum the necessary punch. All in all, there are better representatives...
Review by Double Barrel
DOK is not my favorite mark! Even reduced i miss some "gourmandise" and pastry notes i got with other marks. Still a very good rum!
Review by Palo - V Poháriku
Typical DOK notes on the nose, quite sour taste, medium long. Not so crazy as younger DOKs. Recomended to taste, for sure.
Review by Jussi Piirainen
The only rum available at the Helsinki Drink Festival Whisky Edition. On the nose: Mild esters, overripe pineapples and bananas. Sweet. Glue. Marzipan notes. Taste: Overripe pineapples and bananas. Esters. Light glue. Sweet. Marzipan notes. As the rum opens up you get more citrus notes and light bitter notes Finish: Woody. Pineapples. Slightly creamy mouthfeel. Spices at the end. This could be great rum as introduction to Jamaican rum or the DOK mark. Its got those Jamaican rum notes, but without the intensity and it has a. approachable palate
Review by Tola76
Fantastic rum. Light acidity, lots of fruit, ester. Woody for me leans towards bacon-y. Passion fruit dominates with pineapple. But very smooth and round. I don't find it alcoholic at all. Sweetness is there too and balances the acidity very well
Review by Morgan Garet
Typical Hampden dissolving nose/tropical fruit/marzipan On the palate, very ripe tropical fruit dominates, with pineapple in the lead. Solvents and light spices complete the picture on a buttery texture. Nice but not crazy dok, perhaps too much reduction.
Review by Richard Krupa
Lots of overripe fruit in the nose and taste
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
Good rum. You really taste the esters. Alcohol is very present. Could be better integrated
