Review by TheFrenchRefill
A very good rum, which I enjoy drinking from time to time.
Review by Roman Staroń
A pleasant rum for the evening, undemanding and light.
Review by Johannes
Very thin, not really meaningful in terms of taste. I can't taste Hampden, rather Worthy Park or Monymusk.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#4774 10.07.2024 Sampling a bit at home. Nose Light wood, fruity, banana, overripe, faint caramel, light nutts, spice, ester. Palate Oily, warm, round, light wood, fruity, light nutts, light caramel, faint chocolate, faint floral, banana, ester. Finish Medium long, light wood, light caramel, faint citrus, ester, light banana. The empty glass has light herbs and sweet toffee. Needs to rest for a good while to settle properly. I'd prefer this rum in a mixer and that's going to be my next experiment.
