One member calls it a "brachiale Fruchtbombe" — a full-on fruit bomb — and that's the story here. Pineapple leads, banana and mango behind it, all riding a wave of alcohol that nobody pretends is hidden. This is Hampden's LROK mark at 61.6%, tropical and intense but a little rough around the edges. Several tasters love the fruit and dock it for balance.
The community says- Big tropical fruit
- True LROK mark
- But: Hot at full proof

How does Cadenhead's Hampden JMLR LROK 2002 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Intense, pineapple-forward Hampden at full proof Loud, tropical LROK that most rate highly for the fruit and mark down for balance — the alcohol runs hot and a touch unruly. Water helps.

A brute fruit bomb. Intense in both the fruit and alcohol impact. Overall a little too unbalanced.
Review by Alex Kunath
A little lacking in power on the nose. A little too sour on the tongue? Otherwise quite ok
Review by Gil Firth
טעימה אצל חבר ברגיל, מארק מעולה. בקבוק דיי ישיר אבל איכותי מאוד. האמפדן קונטיננטלי ברמה גבוהה. כל הטרופיות. מלח. זיתים. בננה. כל כך מטעים למארק הזה Lrok יופי של רום לא מורכב מידיי אבל אינטנסיבי ומאוד מאוד טעים.
Review by Carl-Johan Thulin
Great sweetness, a lot of tropical fruit and a lot of alcohol flavor. Flavorful but unbalanced.
Review by bossi
Oops, the Cadenheads hits the nose a little more than the comparison candidates - the alcohol is a little more present. Glue aromas are also more in the foreground. The rest is also quite typical of LROK hampden. On the palate, it is not as herbal as the TRC, but the fruit - especially the pineapple - is more dominant, which I personally find more appealing. However, the alcohol is much more prominent than in the TRC Hampden 2000 12yo and is even a little disturbing compared to the TRC. Also to be found here: an impetuous, long, angular finish. 81 points
