Secret Cask Hampden Jamaican Rum (Der Gereifte) <>H 2001

Here's the surprise: at 61.3% this Hampden drinks far softer than the number suggests — several tasters call it smooth, well-integrated, even a touch too polite for the mark. Expect pineapple and banana up front, glue and solvent in the background, vanilla and a citrus tail. The recurring gripe is a bitterness in the finish that keeps a few people from top marks.

The community says
  • Fruity pineapple & banana
  • ABV well integrated
  • Bitter finish

The look inside the bottle

How does Secret Cask Hampden Jamaican Rum (Der Gereifte) <>H 2001 taste?

Aggregated from 23 community reviews.

Fruity, smooth Hampden with a bitter finish Loved as a fruity, beautifully integrated Hampden that hides its ABV well. The common catch: a bitterness on the finish, and for some it's almost too smooth for the mark.

Perfect for

Hampden fans who want fruity ester funk over raw intensity

Less suitable for

Anyone sensitive to a bitter finish or wanting a rough, edgy Hampden

Очень классный выдержанный фанк в основе. Машинное масло, немного грязного бензина, оливковый рассол, кислая лимонная шипучка, пряный тропический уксус и терпкий зеленый чай. Ух, как же мощно во вкусе. Сладкие тропики, кисло-сладкий фанк, соленые оливки, пряная терпкость. Продолжительное послевкусие. Оливковое масло и терпкая мякоть оливок. В прохладный дождливый день это просто бальзам на душу!

Im Glas entfalten sich Aromen von trop. Früchten, Ester, Vanille, etwas Klebstoff und Lösungsmittel, Zitrusfrüchte, leicht florale und vergorene Aromen. Am Gaumen tropische Früchte, Gewürze, etwas Lakritz, dezent florale Noten und eine leichte Bitterkeit. Guter Hampden!

really like this Hampden. The bottle is always empty. Very fruity with a hint of esters or polish, alcohol is well integrated; a well balanced rum on the fruity side.

#4295 11.10.2023 Wow, this is a very nice rum and the price tag is pretty good at release. Fresh, fruity with esters and glue and well balanced and great ABV integration. The palate is intense and warming with nice fruit. The finish is long and warm with a nice citrus note. Draws nice curtains in the glass. The empty glass has marzipan and light dried fruit.

Schöner ◇H aus 2001. Ich würde hier aber behaupten, dass dieser fast, wenn nicht komplett kontinental gelagert war. Geschmacklich trotzdem sehr lecker. Also vorhanden was ein ◇H haben muss. Sehr gut, aber für mich kein absoluter Überflieger.

Klassisches <>H Profil, aber sehr "smooth" und weich, ohne Ecken und Kanten. Ohne Frage ein toller Hampden, für meinen Geschmack aber fast schon ein wenig zu gefällig.
