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

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.
