Hampden, founded in 1753 in Trelawny, makes pure pot still rum from Jamaican molasses with long, wild fermentations that give its signature high-ester character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilky, smooth and tropical, it is the quintessential expression of the Hampden style, and an extremely versatile rum, from mixing to sipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA benchmark Jamaican rum, it makes a great gift for any rum lover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat, or use it in a classic Mai Tai or Daiquiri.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAged rum is one of the most diverse spirits in the world, shaped by the sugarcane, the still and the warm climates where it matures, which speed up the interaction between spirit and wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJamaican rum is famous for its high-ester style, which brings intense tropical fruit and the funky character known as hogo. Ageing in Jamaica's hot climate is far faster than in cooler places, so eight tropical years give the rum a depth and integration that would take much longer elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHampden is one of the few Jamaican estates to grow, ferment, distil and age entirely on its own land, which is why its rums are so sought after by rum enthusiasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silky, smooth and tropical.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-ester Jamaican pot still.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 years, tropically aged.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hampden Estate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Jamaican Rum, Pot Still\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 years (aged in Jamaica)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92 proof (46% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trelawny, Jamaica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or with a little water, or mix a Mai Tai or Daiquiri.
