Review by Jakob
Very good representative of the 1993 Hampdens, already on the somewhat sour-smoky side, but still with a wide range of aromas around strong wood influences, spices, some olive and sweet pastry notes. Extreme in a positive sense.
Review by Tschusikowsky
A symphony!🎶 A phenomenal Hampden! Happy that I was allowed to taste something from it🤩🥰Bottle is now unfortunately empty🥹🙃
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Wow, this is a game changer. A super high quality release from Guildive. If you like to release more flavours the add a drop or two of water! Funky from opening the bottle to the end of the long finish. Fruits are there and mostly on the nose where you get an overripe/rotting fruit note. On top of that you have the other typical Jamaican notes. The palate is warm and well balanced between the tar and glue on one side and the fruit and vanilla, salt and chocolate on the other. The finish is very long and lightly salty with banana and funk. Price is pretty good.
Review by Hendrik Müller
1993 HD continental - schon ziemlich krasses Zeug, was die Jungs aus Zürich da gefunden haben. Einst als Ladenhüter sehr lange unter dem Radar geflogen, da man ihn nur in der kleinen schweizer Szene kannte, wird er mittlerweile von vielen Sammlern ( vergeblich ) gesucht. Sehr breite, vielschichtige Fruchtaromen, sehr gut eingebundener Alkohol, intensiv und lang im Abgang, da bleiben wirklich keine Wünsche offen.
