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
  • But: Brutal 86% heat

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.
