“The expectations of the legendary 1993 vintage could not quite be met. Nevertheless, a very nice Hampden that is fun to drink.”

“I let the rum breathe for an hour before tasting. Had promised me much more on the nose and am therefore disappointed. No comparison to the Nobilis 93. Taste definitely a board and a good rum, BUT from a HD 93 I just expect that he knocks me down. For the equivalent of 392 € on 0.7 liters, we are also sporty in price. I like the finish best. All in all, you have a lot of fun with the rum, but for the money and the legendary vintage 1993 for me a disappointment. Nevertheless, I award a good 88 points.”

“Nose: the pineapple and esters jump out at me from the glass! I'm immediately reminded of the rum flavoring my mother used to bake from little bottles. This is definitely a definite step up from the Hampden Great House bottlings! Then overwhelming on the palate with pineapple and the other typical markers of Hampden Distillery. All very finely nuanced. The alcohol is present with the right strength.In the medium to long finish, the (rancid) butter comes through again 😁 The crass notes of rum fade quite quickly and a dull note that is difficult to describe remains for a long time.I unfortunately have no reference for the 1993 Hampden, supposedly there are even better bottlings. For me, however, it is already in the range of "excellent"”
