- Description
- Hampden Estate's 4-year-old high-ester rum captures Jamaican fermentation intensity with concentrated aromas of roasted banana, prune, and menthol building on the palate as bitter orange and candied cherry emerge. The cask aging introduces subtle smoke and roasted cane-syrup notes without obscuring the signature ester-driven character. This bottling at cask strength (60% ABV) demands respect and rewards those who appreciate funky, fruit-forward rum undiluted.
