CoR Hampden Jamaica Ed. 5 1992
Don't expect the usual Hampden glue-bomb — this one leads with fruit, not funk. Twenty-nine years in cask has turned it soft and oily: ripe pineapple, mango and overripe banana up front, then a green herbal-tea and mint edge several tasters flag as the twist. A faint salty note runs through it. At 58% the alcohol sits perfectly integrated, and the finish just won't quit.
The community says- Ripe tropical fruit
- Long oily finish
- Herbal-tea edge

Review by Lukas Jäger
Tasted at the 12th GRF, in the masterclass at Colours of Rum: Great nose and almost a bit unusual since very herbal, but much more impressive on the palate. Alcohol top integrated, the classic Hampden profile comes along with a few additional flavors of herbs and a slight saltiness. Alcohol super integrated, very oily and it lingers in the mouth forever. This is a top shelf Hampden!
Review by Sebastian.W
Initial nosing mostly reveals polish and wood notes. This evolves into pastries like lemon pie and banana bread. The pastry and overripe banana notes are also present on the taste alongside dark chocolate and some baking spices. Overall a very nice release.
Review by Oliver
Again, an excellent and classic Hampden from the 1992 vintage. A bit sweeter and also wilder than Ed. 4. Also more salt. I like the herbaceous, spicy note from the sister cask a tad better.
Review by Frank
12th GRF, Colours of Rum Tasting. Quick and short... Nose: bacony esters, fine lemon, good middle. Palate: nicely fruity, rendered fat here too. Very round and one. Fun.
Review by Jakob
Crisp fruit, balanced sweetness, plus subtle green aromas that remind me of tea - very nice bottling.
Review by Alex1981
Very solid 92 HD, olives & tropical fruits. Less dry/herbal than other 92 releases but more fruity.
