    Das ist ein Hampden Mark-Blend nach meinem Geschmack. Die Nase ist zwar klassisch aber noch etwas zurückhaltend. Am Gaumen dann die volle Ladung Funkiness, wie ich sie von Hampden so mag. Frucht, Ester, leichte Säure, Würze und Holz. Der Abgang kann diese Kraft nicht ganz so halten, dennoch eine sehr gute Abfüllung!

    I love this blend of fermented tropical fruits, esters and spices. That's exactly my thing, Mika hit the bull's eye with the blend of C<>H (2007 Bar 1802) and the <>H 2013 Eastern Tales. I don't really notice the finish in the Guyana cask, I might have to taste the two rums in the blend again individually. The rum has a great creaminess on the palate and an eternally long finish. Only the alcohol is a little too sharp, but it still scores 90 points for me.

    #5821 03.10.2025 Enjoying a few samples after work while listening to some heavy Psy Trance. Nose Medium intense, light wood, fruity, overripe, ester, spice, glue.. Palate Medium intense, light wood, faint smoke, fruity, overripe, ester, cinnamon, glue, light floral, faint sour. Finish Long and warm, fruits, light wood, spice, faint caramel, light pineapple. Empty glass Vanilla, light chocolate, light caramel. A very nice rum at an OK price tag in my mind.

    Tasted together with the reduced Franconian Tasting Gang. You can recognize the clear Hampden markers that you might expect. In my opinion, it has a little too much sourness, which can't quite balance out the sweetness.
