"A classic Hampden profile, but not a top example of its kind" is roughly where several tasters land. The nose is ester, glue and banana; the palate opens up into pineapple, wood, dark chocolate and grilled nuts, with varnish and a drying, lacquer-like grip. At 60.7% the alcohol sits well. A few felt the finish was surprisingly short.

How does Hampden Kill Devil <>H 2001 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Classic Hampden ester, fruit-forward, short finish A well-made, textbook <>H Hampden with plenty of ester and fruit. Most enjoy it; the common gripe is a short finish and it not quite reaching the top rank.

Review by Adrian Wahl
Beautiful classic profile as you would expect from the HD 2001 <>H. Solid representative without standing out. Also delivers Tai in May.
Review by Vincent D
A very pretty Hampden that gives pride of place to ripe fruit. Esters are present. Nice woodiness. Varnish too, but discreet. A hint of vanilla. Acidity on the palate. A spiciness that grabs the tongue before wood and then ripe fruit take over. The varnish is back. The finish is initially woody. Then pineapple and banana take over, before giving way to a slight bitterness. Very pleasant. Complex and evolving.

15.02.2020 Had a nice evening with dinner and everything and after that a nice little tasting. Notes. Light in colour. Nose Light wood, fruity, banana, ginger, spice, ester, light smoke. Palate Oily, wood, fruity, pineapple, citrus, ester, light smoke. Finish Medium long, wood, pineapple, light chocolate.
Review by Mentalo
Solid 2001 Hampden. Pineapple, ester, some wood, marzipan. It doesn't do much wrong now. Alcohol is well integrated. The biggest criticism for me is the finish. It was surprisingly short.
Review by Stefan L
Todays competition lowers it a bit and I probably would rate it higher if it where a higher ABV too, but still really good.
Review by TheJackDrop
I don't remember where I got this sample, what a shame! The nose isn't very expressive, it's a Hampden with esters but not too strong. On the palate, it's an explosion of flavors with fruits, tobacco, good woodiness, a little astringency, dark chocolate, roasted hazelnuts... basically everything is there with strong concentration. Ultimately more woody and a bit less fruity. Great experience.
Review by Lukas Jäger
A very good and typical Hampden, which hits in with a lot of ester. Varnish spreads in the mouth and leaves it very dry.Good Hampden, but not the best I have drunk so far.
Review by Buddudharma
Schönes klassisches Hampden-Profil, jedoch kein Spitzenvertreter seiner Art.

Read full review ›This rum has a surprising amount of balance to it and its been really well looked after. It’s probably about mid tier in terms of esters but it carries enough of the funk and hogo to make this unmistakably Pot Still Jamaican Rum. It has a really good balance to...
