Review by Christoph H.
Quite a beast! Very fruity nose, still feels very young and fresh. I really like that, but it also makes it a bit one-dimensional. Earthy aromas, spiciness, and the cask are very subtly noticeable. Alongside green apple, tropical fruits, and citrus marmalade, there's also a lot of solvent and acidity, but also sweetness like marzipan and molasses. On the palate, the fruit clearly dominates again, very intense, strong, creamy but not quite as mouth-filling as other representatives... something's somehow missing... The finish is only medium-length and a bit disappointing.
Review by Pavel Spacek
... 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"
