Brutal Hampden ester rocket fuel For seasoned enthusiasts only: an extreme, unaged Hampden ester bomb at 86.1%. Explosive glue, overripe tropical fruit and heat. RumX members see it as a wild sipping experiment and a powerful cocktail booster.
Seasoned high-ester junkies and bartenders wanting an overproof Hampden to supercharge daiquiris or tiny-serve sips of raw tropical fruit and glue intensity.
Beginners, anyone sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers seeking a relaxed, smooth sipper rather than a near-90% experimental ester concentrate.

Review by zabo
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.
Review by Buddudharma
Danke an zabo für das Sample zur Desinfektion. Brontales Ester-Brett mit relativ gut eingebundenem Alkohol und der vollen Breitseite Frucht und Pattex. Macht Spaß.

Review by Johnny Rumcask
Eins vorweg: der hohe Alkoholgehalt killt geschmacklich sehr viel. Zurück bleiben Ester, Fruchtnoten, Karton, Klebstoff und Lösungsmittel. Aus meiner Sicht eher zum Mischen interessant. Pur zu alkoholisch. Interessant wäre hier eine länger gelagerte Abfüllung probieren zu können.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Full of taste but too strong. The alcohol hurts
Review by Leo Krüper
Erinnert an Schnaps. Ein schöner Willi. Absoluter Exot und wird so hoffentlich nicht abgefüllt.
