Hampden Stolen Overproof

"A wild ride," as one member put it — and that's the honest pitch. This 6-year Hampden pot-still overproof throws glue, acetone, varnish and overripe tropical fruit (papaya, jackfruit) at you, with a little oak and toasted coconut underneath. At 61.5% it drinks hot, but a few drops of water tame it. Several people call it their daily sipper and hunt down more.

The community says
  • Big Jamaican funk

Summarized by AI from 23 community reviews.

Hot, funky Hampden that sips and mixes People love this one — funky, juicy and full-bodied for six years. Explosive but balanced. The catch is the heat: a couple drops of water help, and it's a killer in a rum and coke.

I want every single bottle of this rum. Wow. A startlingly impressive rum for something I giggled at when I saw it’s name the first time. How wrong I was. Full of juicy flavor and funk, it manages a wonderful full body mouth feel on only 6 years.

Very nice for the price point. Smells like rotten banana and a little tar. Something like papaya as well. Pours dark golden. A little oak in the mouth. Some toasted coconut. Medium to long finish. Bottle pour shopped thanks to 10art1.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate

As a sipper it is the type of thing you might only need one glass of. As a mixer its the type of insane loony juice that will cause you to lose a day or two. A rum and coke with this rum is simply divine. This is fantastic stuff....
