Famille Ricci Hampden 1983 (The Nectar Of The Daily Drams)
Forty-one years in the cask and it still comes out swinging with glue, solvent and varnish — the Hampden markers survive the age intact. Underneath sit very ripe tropical fruits, mango and pineapple leading, with a buttery, oily body and a roasted note that builds toward the finish. Only there does the wood finally step in. At 53.5% a couple of tasters flag a slight pricky heat.
The community says- Loud ester funk
- Ripe tropical fruit

How does Famille Ricci Hampden 1983 (The Nectar Of The Daily Drams) taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Aged Hampden with ester and ripe-fruit punch Only a handful of notes so far, but they agree: a deeply ripe, ester-driven old Hampden that keeps its funk after four decades. A touch of alcohol prickle is the one nag.

Review by cigares
A rum tasted at Rhum Fest in 2024. An explosive nose of esters and very ripe tropical fruit with Cenentit glue. On the palate, a firework display of esters and fruit with woody notes. The finish is more marked by the barrel, the first palate by fruit. There's also an increasingly distinct roasted flavour. An excellent rum, though I'd deduct a few points for the slightly spicy alcohol.

Review by Pavel Spacek
... Hampden, the legendary Jamaican distillery that besides rum also produces alcohol for perfumes. In all rums from this distillery, you can smell wild esters, after which your whole body soaks up the scent of yellow tropical fruits - mango, papaya, pineapple, peach. One of the rums you "must try before you die".
Review by Jacques etdom
On the nose a very nice Hampden with beautiful depth. Ripe tropical fruits, pineapple in the lead. Glue, a bunch of esters, a slight vanilla. On the palate a beautiful explosion of fruits and esters, a nice patina with this well-buttered side. A well-present roasted side, which intensifies towards the end of the palate. The wood appears during the long finish. Very very nice!
Review by Émile Shevek
The nose is explosive with varnish, solvents, esters, tropical fruits. On the palate lots of esters, glaze, roasted, tropical fruit and light wood. Not perfectly round, very powerful overall
Review by EspritRhum
Tasted at Rhum Fest 2024, I really liked it being a fan of Hampden. All the distillery's markers are present at their best!
