Flensburg Rum Company HDGDL Jamaica Single Cask Rum 2024

"Your nose writing checks your palate can't cash" is how one taster summed it up — and that's the story. The nose is a fruit bomb: tropical fruit, esters, glue, marzipan and butter biscuit. The palate turns rougher and more bitter, a bit flat and young at 4 years. Most agree it shines as a mixer more than a neat pour.

The community says
  • Fruity funky nose
  • High ester character
  • Bitter palate

Funky young Jamaican, better mixed than neat A young, high-ester Jamaican blend (Hampden, Long Pond, Clarendon) with a lovely nose. Palate is bitter and rougher, so most reach for it in a Mai Tai rather than neat.

Erstaunlich guter Blend! High Ester, etwas jung, etwas flach, nicht sehr komplex, aber richtig gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

HDGL … so richtig kann ich mit ihm nichts anfangen… er trifft nicht so ganz meinen Geschmack, aber als Mixer könnte ich ihn mir sehr gut vorstellen. Die Nase ist noch recht gefällig, aber am Gaumen ist er doch recht anstrengend… ich habe zudem eine Fehlnote (chemisch), die ich nicht ganz fassen kann. Irgenwie ist das nix

Durchaus interessante Messeabfüllung dieser Jamaica Blend von FRC. Bringt in der Nase ordentlich Funk mit viel Ester und tropischen Früchten. Am Gaumen kommt das Fass stärker durch und der Rum hat etwas zu kämpfen, bleibt aber dann doch relativ präsent. Für den Kurs sicher ein empfehlenswertes Mitbringsel von der Pueblo del Ron gewesen.

Verkostet auf der Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024. Der Rum ist eine schwierige Sache. Pur beim ersten Schluck geil, daheim wieder so naja. Mittlerweile als Mixer probiert im MaiTai. Fazit super geil. 50€ aber Hallo mehr davon. Keine Offenbarung. Aber muss man trotzdem haben. Extremer Fomo Rum!!!

Messeabfüllung Kirsch nbg. Eine verdammt leckere Nase, gefolgt von einem nicht ganz so intensiven Geschmack auf den Zunge. Ingesamt ein guter Jamaikaner. Zum Mixen eine echte Bombe, pur auch ok. Prost ! Update: Nach erneuter Verkostung geht es zwei Punkte nach oben. Ich mag junge Destillate einfach…

Wow, eine absolut positive Überraschung! Viele Ester, typischer Jamaica Funk... Nach vier Jahren kontinentaler Reifung hat er noch eine gewisse Schärfe, die den Rum exklusiv für den geübten Gaumen trinkbar macht. Danke an DomM für die exklusive Abfüllung.

7.9/10

Still a little one-dimensional on the nose on the fruit ester track, but with a nice marzipan-biscuit sweetness on the palate. Of course, it would have been exciting to taste what effect a little more time in the barrel would have had here - but it remains a good release even as it is, although it is somewhat lost in the mass of other young Hampdens.
