Hampden Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum Extreme High Ester (German Rum Festival Special 2024) DOK
Everyone agrees on one thing: this is an ester bomb, glue and overripe tropical fruit slamming out of the glass. The 86.1% is the whole story here — a few members find the alcohol surprisingly well tucked in, others say it hurts and flattens the flavor. Underneath the Pattex you'll find pineapple, mango and an oily, warm finish. Barely more than a nip at a time.
The community says- Huge DOK esters
- Pineapple & mango

What can I say, it is and remains an ester board. Simply massive, with a huge load of Pattex in the nose. The whole thing explodes in the mouth. Despite the extremely high ABV, it is not alcoholic. Compared to Plantery High Ester, however, it falls a little short. But it's great for spiking cocktails of all kinds.

An overwhelming nose of alcohol, overripe fruits, and glue. Extreme alcohol but you can sense beautiful fruits underneath. The entry on the palate is wild, alcoholic, esterified, fruity, then the alcohol rises another notch. Whoa! You really have to take very little. The finish is rather short. What an experience!

Reminds me of schnapps. A nice Willi. Absolute exotic and hopefully won't be bottled like this.

Thanks to zabo for the sample for disinfection. Brontales ester bomb with relatively well-integrated alcohol and the full broadside of fruit and Pattex. Fun stuff.
Review by Johannes
This one really packs a punch! A bit too much, but still incredible that you can even drink or sip it with such extreme proof!
Review by Johnny Rumcask
One thing upfront: the high alcohol content kills a lot of flavor. Left are esters, fruit notes, cardboard, glue, and solvents. From my point of view, more interesting for mixing. Too alcoholic neat. It would be interesting to try a longer-aged bottling here.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Full of taste but too strong. The alcohol hurts ... Hampden, legendarni jamajska destilerka, ktera krome rumu produkuje take alkohol do parfemu. Ve vsech rumech z teto destilerky ucitite divoke estery, po kterych cely vas organizmus nasakne vuni zluteho tropickeho ovoce - manga, papaji, anansu, broskvi. Jeden z rumu, ktere "must try before die"
