Abstract: We introduce a Kummer condition for Hopf-Galois extensions that generalizes the notion of Kummer Galois extension, depending on the elements that are eigenvectors for all elements in a Hopf-Galois structure. We use this new perspective to characterize radical extensions $L=K(sqrt[n]a_1,dots,sqrt[n]a_k)$ of a field $K$ that are $K$-linearly disjoint with $K(zet{a}_n)$, where $zet{a}_n$ is a primitive $n$-th root of unity. The main tool is the construction of a product Hopf-Galois structure on the compositum of almost classically Galois extensions $L_1/K$, $L_2/K$ under fairly general restrictions from Hopf-Galois structures on those. When $L/K$ is an extension of number or $p$-adic fields, we shall derive criteria on the freeness of $mathcal{O}_L$ as module over its associated order in an almost classically Galois structure on $L/K$.
