CoR Hampden Jamaica Ed. 4 1992
People deep into Hampden will feel at home here: this 29-year continental-aged 1992 pot-still leans fruity and soft rather than wild. Expect overripe banana, pineapple, a little citrus and salty creamy nuts, with wood and black tea underneath. Several tasters call out the restrained esters and how well the 58.2% is tucked in. One catch worth knowing — a few note the finish runs short.
The community says- Ripe tropical fruit
- Well-hidden alcohol

How does CoR Hampden Jamaica Ed. 4 1992 taste?
Aggregated from 40 community reviews.
Soft, fruity old-Hampden sipper A loved, fruit-forward Hampden that trades wild funk for balance and easy drinking. Most find it rich and expressive; a couple say it's a touch too vegetal and sour, with a short finish.

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
great sipping Hampden. nice complexity... When it comes to 92 Hampdens, this is one of the few that I like. But it doesn't come close to the Rum Nation or the CDI. Overall a little too herbal and sour.
Review by cigares
Dégustation CoR, Rum Club Switzerland. Un nez expressif, fruité avec des esters doux et d’une puissance modérée. De l’ananas sur-mûr, d’autres fruits tropicaux, du thé noir et du chêne. La bouche est très belle, suave, riche et expressive. Beaucoup de fruits mais en équilibre avec les autres arômes, bois, thé noir et vanille. La finale est sur les fruits, les fruits tropicaux, puis le bois et enfin le thé noir. Un très beau rhum, tout à fait équilibré, riche en arômes et très buvable, une très belle réussite !
Review by Oliver
Excellent Hampden! Little acidity and great herbal spice. Has more wood than the sister cask (Ed. 5) and less funk. Makes really fun!
Review by Jakob
Great Hampden, a bit "softer" than the sister barrel, with both playing at an impressive level.

Review by SaibotZtar
Nose very fruity, rather little ester.... Alcohol very well integrated. In the mouth a bit more bite without being intrusive.... also here nice fruit but also ne portion of wood. But seems nicely balanced. One of the better 1992s I could taste. * Rum needs mMn at least 30min in the glass.
Review by Tom Buteneers
92 points for a 92 Hampden, it’s justified. SDR23
Review by Righrum
A great continental Hampden. Esters, over and underripe bananas some citrus and with the lightly salty creamy nuts note that lingers the tongue. Also vanilla and ananas, a bit hidden but noticeable, will complete the profile. A lovely dram, great selection
Review by Beancheese
In October 2023, I spent an amazing night sampling rums at Bar Little Happiness in Hiroshima and then purchased some samples for the road. The bar owner was an incredibly kind host and provided me this sample as a present on leaving. This was a lovely, balanced Hampden. All the notes you want and expect to find but in great balance. Esters were there but contained, nice fruit, hints of wood, with a slight smoke like leather. The nose had something fresh and green about it and the palate had a slight herbal, tobacco quality. Thank you for the amazing experience and for the lovely gift.
Review by Master P
Schöner weicher und milder Hampden, nach einer zeit im Glas entfaltet sich der anfangs zurückhaltene fruchtkorb von gelben Früchten. Easy zu trinken und angenehm. Abgang ist leider sehr kurz. Aber gutes Teil
Review by Johannes
Excellent Hampden! A little less fruity than the sister barrel!
Review by Gil Firth
I really like those continental Hampdens by IB. You shoul look for those our there. A clean tropical, brighter, sour take on hampden טעימה לא יודע למה הסגנון הבהיר הזה ממש מעניין אותי. מלא אננס. לקה. מלח. לימון. הולך ומתפתח. מתוק. מלוכלך. תרופות. מצויין
Review by Palo - V Poháriku
I really enjoyed this one.
Review by DosenZorn
Wahnsinnig toller Hampden. Schön fruchtig, easy drinking, aber dabei schön vielseitig komplex. Wieder sieht man das Alter kaum an, am Gaumen wird die kontinentale Reife aber deutlich. Toller Hampden .
Review by Pavel Spacek
... Hampden, legendarni jamajska destilerka, ktera krome rumu produkuje take alkohol do parfemu. Ve vsech rumech z teto destilerky ucitite divoke estery, po kterych cely vas organizmus nasakne vuni zluteho tropickeho ovoce - manga, papaji, anansu, broskvi. Jeden z rumu, ktere "must try before die"
