9.0/10

Enjoying a RumX Chairman's reserve while writing about the three samples I cracked open earlier today. A very nice Hampden and the nose arrives as soon as you open the bottme/sample. Fruity with light wood and spices. Well balanced in the ABV. Thr empty glass is wonderful with nice and strong flavours.

8.9/10

89 points. Solvents, tropical fruit, funk, pastries, wood and brown sugar. A little olive in the finish. Extremely round. Very nice but certainly not worth today’s price of admission.

8.5/10

good. Typical hampden, intuitive pineapple flavor, but also means homogeneity. It has a good length of finish, but a little bit less complicated. solvents, tropical fruits (with their sour) and baked pastries are overwhelming, cover the rest. And alcohol doesn't integrate very well, so masks some other delightful elements under the interference of alcohol. Regardless of ester content, this lack of flavor is really unacceptable. In addition, the price is seriously off the ground. too expensive, not worth for me.
