"Dark, spicy and creamy. The finish gives the Hampden depth and is reminiscent of a Pagos. The alcohol is not ideally integrated, therefore slight deductions. Otherwise exciting bottling!"

"Smells like an old damp cellar to me on the nose, not my cup of tea. In the finish, a taste emerges that I unfortunately can't identify, but doesn't suit me at all. However, I now like it better than the first time I drank it."

"Adding water helps a lot to add some depth on the palate and push back the slightly off putting foul notes in the nose."

"Sweetish, woody... shortly at the end - totally weird - do I have a hint of onion?!"
