Hampden Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 24 HD Magnum <>H 2001
One taster called it "erst auf den zweiten Schluck ein Hampden" — and that's the character here: a 19-year continental <>H that reads gentler than most. Fermented banana and pineapple, buttery molasses, burnt sugar and a little citrus sourness. The esters are there but dialed back, with real cask roundness and a sweeter finish. Smooth enough to sip slowly at 59.4%, though a few wanted more fruit.
The community says- Smooth for the ABV
- Ester funk plus cask
- Sour nose for some

How does Hampden Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 24 HD Magnum <>H 2001 taste?
Aggregated from 22 community reviews.
Rounder, softer aged Hampden with sweet finish Well-liked as a rounder, more restrained Hampden — banana, esters and burnt sugar with good cask depth. A couple found the nose too sour or wished it hit harder.

Review by MarcT
This one waited for me in a covered glass, in a closed cabinet (for letting it breathe while I send my kids off to bed), and I could still smell it. The profile is nice, not too heavy and not too light, very fruity. The alcohol did not have any burn for me, which I liked. The only thing bothering me is that rotten fruity component, that so many love, but that I sometimes find distracting.
Review by mto75
The proximity of the two barrels is unmistakable. Both 19 continental years on the hump, the Ed. 24 additionally another half a year in the HD 92 Cask of the Ed. 18. Honestly, however, I must say that it is really difficult even side-by-side to make out differences on the nose. Surprisingly, I do notice differences on the palate. The Ed. 24 seems a bit more full-bodied, with more sweetness on the finish. But maybe it's just because of the 1.4% higher ABV and less because of the additional finish...it definitely adds another point over the Ed. 17 😉
Review by DomM
Nose again (like the other RC) with some sour and citrus notes, but less prominent and complemented by candied fruits. So far I liked all out of the 2001 <>H batch. Looking at a close field: KD > TB > RC-M > RC
Review by Alexander Rasch
A very good Hampden. Very balanced and especially on the palate with great barrel influence. The nose almost a bit restrained compared to the Ed17. But on the palate the clear winner. Unfortunately came on the market in a strange magnum format. Since the sample will have to do.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Erstaunlich, wie sich das Finish bemerkbar macht, obwohl das Finish ja doch aus der selben Ecke kommt. Etwas weniger bissig, vielleicht sogar runder und etwas mehr Fass sind am Gaumen wahrzunehmen. Ob ich ihn besser finde als den ursprünglichen ohne Finish, fällt mir gerade schwer zu sagen. Als Fan von High-Ester mag ich durchaus die kräftigen Ester, die hier etwas dezenter sind. Wahrscheinlich ist die Entscheidung hier einfach tagesform-abhängig.
Review by Tschusikowsky
In der Nase erstaunlich nuanciert was die gewürze angeht, früchtetechnisch ausbalancierter und auf der dezenteren Seite für eine Hampden. Schöner Abgang mit Süsse. Finish kommt hier sehr gut.
Review by Johannes
Für meinen Geschmack könnte er etwas fruchtiger sein.
Review by Thunderbird
This HD does not convince me 100%! In the nose, the sour aromas predominate...and the palate I feel overall very restrained and relatively round... that's not wrong, but I'm missing something there... the finish then fits the profile again
