Hampden The Nectar Of The Daily Drams DOK 2021
Hot glue, solvents and overripe banana straight out of the glass — this is Hampden's DOK mark unaged at 60%, so it hits medicinal and phenolic before the fruit lands. Underneath there's pineapple, red-fruit bubblegum and a smoky, ashy finish with a touch of anise. A few tasters wish the alcohol were better tucked in, and some expected more raw funk. Works both as a sipper and in a daiquiri.
The community says- Intense ester punch
- Fruity and phenolic
- But: Heat not integrated

Review by Rare Akuma
Exciting and extremely fruity nose. Lots of red fruits, a little bit of yellow banana, squashed grapes and pineapple juice turned sour. Structures from raw honey, citrusy juniper and olive brine. The DOK is obviously brutally medicinal: hot glue, solvents and phenolic smoke and ash. Red fruit bubblegum on the palate. More raw honey, now accompanied by sugarcane and green, dry earth notes. It’s lightly woody and ashy. More glue, more solvents, more phenol. Chamomile tea at the end into fresh flowers. The finish is smoky and ashy with red fruits and aniseed. Like most whites in this category, this is very interesting and has applications both as a mixer and a sipper.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Typical DOK profile. Overripe fruit meets umami notes reminiscent of bacon and beef jerky. Also solid in the daiquiri. But just no over DOK.... Especially overall not very much fruit and a bit too much phenol and nail polish remover.... there's better! Slowly it's enough then also with the ester Mark at least in the unaged area...
Review by Nelis
I'm starting to appreciate this more with every sip. There is so much going on. A delicious contrast between fruity, savoury and spicy.
Review by RumTaTa
Passable unstored DOK, but in comparison with the RDL White DOK (RX10371) a wallflower 😉.

Palate Intense, warm, ester, fruity, overripe, faint smoke, banana, faint caramel. Finish Long and warm, ester, faint tar, light mango, faint smoke, light caramel.
Review by Nicholas Hardy
Nose: ester glue, butterscotch, slight crème brûlée, wet Pallet: dry bakers chocolate with berries , dirt, slight pineapple Finish: unpopular opinion….cheap cocaine, old, dry
Review by Tom Buteneers
In comparison with RX5674: “fresher” and more citrusy. Glue and solvents, pineapple even a bit of bubblegum that reminds me a bit of HERR (not as good though).
Review by Johnny Rumcask
DOK? In der Nase, ja. Geschmacklich, eher nein. Wo ist der Funk? Taugt vielleicht zum Mischen. Für Esterfans, die das DOK Erlebnis suchen eine Enttäuschung.
Review by Thunderbird
This DOK is much weaker compared to the Warehouse DOK, the alcohol is not as well integrated and the Jamaica funk is more restrained

As expected, a lot of esters. I don't find the alcohol inclusion so elegant.
