Flensburg Rum Company HDGDL Jamaica Single Cask Rum 2024

"Your nose writing checks your palate can't cash" is how one taster summed it up — and that's the story. The nose is a fruit bomb: tropical fruit, esters, glue, marzipan and butter biscuit. The palate turns rougher and more bitter, a bit flat and young at 4 years. Most agree it shines as a mixer more than a neat pour.

The community says
  • Fruity funky nose
  • High ester character
  • But: Bitter palate

Funky young Jamaican, better mixed than neat A young, high-ester Jamaican blend (Hampden, Long Pond, Clarendon) with a lovely nose. Palate is bitter and rougher, so most reach for it in a Mai Tai rather than neat.

Perfect for

Fans of young Jamaican funk who mix Mai Tais

Less suitable for

Anyone wanting a smooth, complex neat sipper

Sehr gespannt war ich auf diese Abfüllung. Die Nase ist nach ca 30min sehr zugänglich und Fruchtig Funky mit ordentlich Tropischen Früchten und Marzipan und Butterkeks 😯😯... richtig gut . Am Gaumen hält er leider nicht was die Nase verspricht... immer sehr gut und lecker das steht außer Frage aber hier kommt mir zu sehr die Bitterstoffe rüber ... irgendwie eine Mischung aus Jungem LROK und Jungem STCE mit paar Tropfen MM ... für mich Pur nicht stimmig... und einfach zu Bitterlastig . Punkte gibts aber für dieses geile Label und die Verwirrung 🤣🤣 PLV Top !! Alkohol trotz des jungen Alters gut eingebunden.

#4700 19.04.2024 Relaxing at home after the luxury tasting at Romdeluxe was cancelled due to lack of participants. Nose Fruity with a touch of peach, light wood, ester, light glue, light wood, light medicinal. Palate Wood, tannins, fresh, fruity, spicy, glue, naturally sweet. Finish Long and lightly dry, wood, tannins, light medicinal, citrus, light smoke. Price to quality is very good in my mind. The empty glass har faint sour cherry.

Der Name hat glaube ich mehr Wellen geschlagen als die Qualität es tun wird 😉 Aber das ist trotzdem ein grundsolides Bottling das da für die Nürnberg Village an den Start kam. Laut Kirsch ein Blend aus HD, LongPond und Clarendon der 4 Jahre im Fass war. Und ja: der Name steht laut ihnen tatsächlich nur für “Hab dich ganz doll lieb.” Schöne Nase und auch pur trinkbar. In jedem Gall ein super Mixer.

Nice blend of Hampden, Long Pond and Clarendon with a solid ester content and this some funk. All components of the blend are distinguishable and add to an overall nice bottling. Obviously this is very young at 4y continental aging but delivers a vibrant bottling which should als work well in drinks. Price/Quality is top notch.

Still a little one-dimensional on the nose on the fruit ester track, but with a nice marzipan-biscuit sweetness on the palate. Of course, it would have been exciting to taste what effect a little more time in the barrel would have had here - but it remains a good release even as it is, although it is somewhat lost in the mass of other young Hampdens.

Verkostet auf der Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024. Der Rum ist eine schwierige Sache. Pur beim ersten Schluck geil, daheim wieder so naja. Mittlerweile als Mixer probiert im MaiTai. Fazit super geil. 50€ aber Hallo mehr davon. Keine Offenbarung. Aber muss man trotzdem haben. Extremer Fomo Rum!!!

Durchaus interessante Messeabfüllung dieser Jamaica Blend von FRC. Bringt in der Nase ordentlich Funk mit viel Ester und tropischen Früchten. Am Gaumen kommt das Fass stärker durch und der Rum hat etwas zu kämpfen, bleibt aber dann doch relativ präsent. Für den Kurs sicher ein empfehlenswertes Mitbringsel von der Pueblo del Ron gewesen.

Wow, eine absolut positive Überraschung! Viele Ester, typischer Jamaica Funk... Nach vier Jahren kontinentaler Reifung hat er noch eine gewisse Schärfe, die den Rum exklusiv für den geübten Gaumen trinkbar macht. Danke an DomM für die exklusive Abfüllung.

No rum is more imitated than Jamaican rum. This is the home of funk, the fruity, overripe-banana intensity that drinkers call hogo, made in the biggest pot stills outside Irish whiskey. When the rest of the Caribbean moved to the column still, Jamaica kept the pot still as its house style, and that stubbornness is exactly why its rum is so prized today.
