Habitation Velier Hampden White Whisky Live 2018 <>H

Neat at 66% this hits hard — glue, olive brine and overripe, almost rotting tropical fruit pour out of the glass, with a wisp of smoke and a faint medicinal note underneath. The palate lands softer than the nose warns, oily and warm, with the alcohol surprisingly well tucked in. One taster catches strawberry and red fruit at the bottom. Loud, unaged Hampden with little to hide behind.

The community says
  • Big glue funk
  • Olive-brine nose
  • But: Lacks complexity

How does Habitation Velier Hampden White Whisky Live 2018 <>H taste?

Summarized by AI from community reviews.

Glue-and-olive white Hampden funk bomb Fans of white Hampden rate it a strong, expressive pick — the drawback most name is thin complexity. Too wild for casual sipping, and the heat is real.

#4077 This is a fresh and intense yet well balanced release. Fruity with nice esters and a light roasted note. The palate is warm and oily and there is a very light medicinal note hidden in there. The empty glass reveals some copper and glue notes.

Thanks a lot for the sample Ralf :). Unaged rum is becoming more and more popular, so an exciting attempt back then by Velier. Taste-wise nice <>H but I just can't give more than 79.
