Hampden S.B.S DOK - Port Cask DOK 2020
Sip this neat and slow: it's a classic DOK Hampden — intense esters, glue and nail polish over grilled pineapple and banana — with the port cask nudging in extra honey, red-berry sweetness and a faint clove-mulled-wine note. Several tasters found the alcohol pushes forward hard at 2 years, so a drop of water helps. Fruity, funky and warm.

How does Hampden S.B.S DOK - Port Cask DOK 2020 taste?
Aggregated from 30 community reviews.
Funky pineapple DOK, hot but tasty Well-liked for its funky esters and pineapple-honey sweetness lifted by the port cask. The main gripe: at just 2 years the alcohol is loud and not fully integrated.

Review by Timo Groeger
Dieser Rum ist ganz gut. Ich finde nur er schmeckt etwas zu sehr alkoholisch. Liegt vielleicht daran, dass er von 2020 ist, bin da aber jetzt nicht so der Experte ;-) Aber für den relativ günstigen Preis völlig in Ordnung.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Einerseits ist die Nase hier deutlich intensiver und ester-lastiger. Andererseits kommen hier deutlich mehr rote beeren Früchte, mehr süße und mehr Gebäck Noten hinzu. Deutlich intensiver und ausgewogener wie der Sherry cask dok und das insgesamt beste Mundgefühl.
Review by Frank
Now the DOK with port tire... Nose: a little closer to a usual DOK than the PX. Intense esters again with pineapple. Subtle almond flavors and honey come through before the glue takes over. Overall a bit brighter than the relatively dull PX. 8.1. Palate: nice and intense esters, lots of grilled and thus candied pineapple with honey. Seems a bit bacon-creamy out back. I only detect the Port influence in the slightly increased sweetness. Fits great and tastes good. 8.3 Compared to a Virgin Oak DOK, a bit finer and sweeter but not at all over the top. Ok, were also only 2 years in the barrel.
Review by Nivius
This one is exciting, it got a real clove mulled wine note from the port wine barrel. The finish is quite short and it is also the brightest of the set - despite port wine barrel
Review by rum_sk
Online tasting with Joshua Singh: Sweet tones of honey, tropical fruits and vanila both in the taste and nose. The 👅 is typical hampden however a bit milder, sweeter and smoother with honey flavours subtly present. Probably my least favorite from the set.
Review by Jakob
A nice profile in itself, the port sweetness harmonizes nicely with the fruit esters, the heavy sweetness doesn't overpower either - however, the alcohol is noticeably pushing forward here. Unfortunately, it's far too dominant for me, which is why I'm a little more cautious with the points - but High Ester and ex-port cask undoubtedly have potential.
