The Whisky Jury Hampden The Many Faces of Rum 2016
If you want a lighter, gentler side of Hampden rather than a full ester bomb, this 8-year 2016 pot-still cask-strength fits — fresh wood, banana, faint smoke, candied fruit and a bit of chocolate. Several tasters found it pleasant but muted; one summed it up as "no profile Hampden." A dirty, fermented touch divides people, and a couple caught bitter off-notes.

- Cask strength
- But: Muted for Hampden

Light, muted Hampden, divides fans Split verdict: a light, fresh Hampden with candied fruit and faint smoke, but many missed the distillery's usual punch and flagged bitterness and odd fermented notes.

Review by Jarek
Franconian Tasting Gang - 23.11.2024: The evening was a bit advanced, so no proper tasting note created. However, I was very glad that I held back on the bottle. The profile didn't appeal to me at all. There was also a subliminal note of vomit on the nose. But perhaps I should give the rum another chance at a better time.
Review by zabo
Tasted together with the Franconian Tasting Gang. Unfortunately once again one of the poorer bottlings from The Whisky Jury. Nothing that leaves a lasting impression. It's okay as a mixer, but not really a top candidate either.
Review by Johannes
Amazingly bad Hampden. Bitter with off-notes.
