Got this 5cl sample as a gift from RhumAttitude when ordering some other bottles. It’s a little like the 8yo releases from Hampden, but a little less heavy, esters rich and funky. It’s a blend from three different casks and is very smooth for a Jamaican pot still.

not quite my cup of tea, a little too sweet and artificial, but overall well integrated alcohol
Review by Leo Krüper
Nice C<>H that doesn't overwhelm. The low %% makes it suitable for Hampden beginners, who would otherwise be put off by the high cask strengths. Delicious sipper with a slightly sour note in the finish.
