Blackadder Hampden Raw Cask Rum LROK 2000
Sipped neat, this Hampden LROK drinks softer than its 56% suggests — tasters keep noting how the alcohol nearly disappears in the glass. Expect esters and glue up front, overripe banana and pineapple, then charred wood, smoke and a bit of leather. One member called the palate "cremig weich" (creamy soft), rounding out a medium-dry, slightly bitter woody finish. Drink it fresh; several say the fruit fades to wood if it sits.
The community says- Overripe fruit esters
- Deceptively soft ABV
- Wood can dominate

How does Blackadder Hampden Raw Cask Rum LROK 2000 taste?
Aggregated from 23 community reviews.
Fruity, smoky Hampden that drinks softer than 56% Widely rated the top of the LROK line: fruity, full-bodied esters balanced by smoky oak. A few find the wood dominates a touch and the finish turns bitter, but most call it a lovely Hampden.

01.11.2019 Den Dansk Rom & Whiskyfestival This was my first visit to this two day event, where everything is included in the ticket. Also the first event where I have seen so many extremely drunk people. This event usually just has what's considered mainstream products, but luckily my friend had the right contacts so for a premium we had our own little collection to go through. Today I get free a free ticket if I want to attend 😊 This is a great rum. Medium intense with very nice fruit and esters. Palate is well balanced and medium dry with nice fruits. Made a note that I liked the smoky note and that I got the glass with most tiny wood pieces.

Tasting-Abend bei Dr. Django (Jamaica): Der Black Adder zeigt ganz schön Power, obwohl er eine nicht ganz so hohe ABV hat. An der Nase sehr klassische Hampden-Essenz , am Gaumen hat er perfekte Trinkstärke, cremig weich verteilt er sich, um dann die volle Aromenvielfalt zu präsentieren. Der Abgang ist mittellang. Eine klasse Abfüllung.

Review by Adrian Wahl
That's where the action is. One of the best LROK I've ever had. Correct nevertheless after eight months my rating from 87 to 86.
Review by Leo Tomczak
Sehe guter Hampden. Klassische Mandeln, Buttersäure. Toller Hampden und die Aschestückchen in der Flasche haben auch Flair.
Review by SaibotZtar
Nose Fruity mango,annas, papaya some banana.... slight glue note and minimal wood. Alcohol almost not noticeable even when the nose is deep in the glass 😅. On the palate -->immediately spreads fruity and ne Kannte wood (slightly bitter) .... fills despite the lower ABV the Mundrum beautiful . Finish is then rather bitter and woody but not disturbing . Beautiful LROK in great quality.
