Hampden Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 62 (Oloroso Cask) C<>H 2023
Most people land in the low-to-mid 8s and enjoy this, though a couple of seasoned funk drinkers call it just young and mid. It's a proper C<>H Hampden ester bomb: glue, nail polish and overripe banana up front, pineapple that fills the room, and marzipan on the palate. The Oloroso cask adds a light sherry sweetness and a touch of roasted wood. Give it 30+ minutes open — it turns into a fruit bomb.
The community says- Intense banana esters
- Long fruity finish
- But: Young

Review by ThiloTSC
Just to my taste: sweet funk with overripe bananas, esters & barrel influence very well done, alcohol well integrated, taste like a ballpoint pen mine in the finish - an impressive rum

#6894 06.06.2026 Having a nice tasting given by Charles from Rum Depot. This is a very nice and intense Hampden and the price tage ia also very good in my mind. Intense and fruity with nice esters, glue, polish, overripe fruits, faint leather and light roasted wood. There is a nice natural sweetness in the profile as well. I found a faint plastic note in the profile (empty glass).

About a year ago, as a relative rum newbie, this bottling would definitely have impressed me. By now, I have to say that this bottling reminds me a lot of the young Hampden bottling from CoR, which was aged in four different barrels. Definitely not bad, but just average and more meant for mixing than for drinking neat.
Review by Christian Rudt
In this rum aged in Oloroso sherry casks, the high esters initially fight very successfully against the sherry cask aging and win aromatically. On the palate, however, the cask strongly pushes back and takes the lead before the esters strike back. A successful bottling of this young rum.
Review by ThreeH
Leicht goldbraune Farbe von der Sherry-Fasslagerung. Kräftige Esternoten, wobei man auch schon in der Nase den Fasseinfluss merkt. Dies setzt sich am Gaumen fort und die Kombi aus den Esternoten mit den deutlichen Oloroso- Noten kommt gut. Kurz nach dem Einschenken noch etwas ungestüm mit der Zeit jedoch immer besser werdend. Ein paar Minuten im Glas sind jedenfalls zu empfehlen und machen das Ganze runder.
Review by Johannes
Etwas alkoholische Schärfe vorhanden, aber durch das oloroso Fass gut gebändigt.
Review by Alex Kunath
Schön süffiger Hampden aus dem Olorose Fass. Farbe schön, Nase lecker ester fruchtig mit leicht dunklen Noten. Auf dem Gaumen wieder angenehm fruchtig herb, leicht holzig. Gut gemacht!

Sehr funkiger High-Ester-Rum. Intensiver Geruch nach Ananas, der durch den ganzen Raum zieht. Anfänglich die typischen starken Aceton-Noten eines C<>H Marks, inklusive leichter Betäubung der Zungenspitze wenn man zu früh probiert. Später erfolgt ein absolut intensiver "Sauer-Flash". Je länger man wartet, desto stärker wird das Fruchtaroma. Vom Sherry-Fass ist wenig zu merken, erst nach ca. 30 Minuten kommt eine leichte Bitterkeit und ein Hauch von Kaffee durch. Bei Verdünnung mit einigen Tropfen Wasser werden weitere Ester "ausgetrieben" so dass kurzzeitig ein verstärkter Aceton-Geruch wahrnehmbar ist, gleichzeitig wendet sich das Kaffee-Aroma in ein leichtes Schokoladen-Aroma. Auch stark verdünnt immer noch fruchtig mit Ananasnoten. Extrem langer Abgang, der teilweise noch am nächsten Morgen wahrnehmbar ist. Kein Rum für Anfänger, kein angenehmer Rum aber definitiv sehr interessant.
Review by Icebird
Eine Esterbombe , viel Frucht und die Lagerung im sherryfass hat ein guten Job gemacht, mir gefällt er super für den Preis 😉
Review by Carlitooo
High Ester Funk trifft auf Sherry, der Rum macht richtig Spaß und ist trotz Recht Kunden Alter erstaunlich rund und mild. Chapeau
Review by Herr K
Jamaica Hampden aus dem Sherry Oloroso Fass von Dirk Becker am Start. Ich rieche Banane und Ester und Funk und Ananas und Sherry. Das setzt sich am Gaumen auch fort und 63.5% sind nicht unangenehm und gut eingebunden. Kann man gut trinken, gefällt mir gut.
Review by Dominic Lutz
Für mich sind die Esternoten überladen, dafür wird man mit einem langen warmen Abgang belohnt. Übergreifen Früchte mit einer leichten Süsse, der Alkohol dürfte aber etwas besser ei gebunden sein. Der Abgabg rettet ihn vor einer tieferen Bewertung. Wer auf Estermonster steht ist hier sicher richtig.
