Hampden Estate Pagos Sherry Cask Rum
Hampden Estate Pagos is the distillery’s first rum exclusively aged in sherry casks, crafted in collaboration with Bodegas Fundador in Jerez. Matured in Oloroso Sherry butts used in the Solera process for up to thirty years, this bold 52% ABV release is infused with the deep, complex flavours of Oloroso while maintaining Hampden's signature high ester profile. The nose is rich with ylang-ylang, clove, blood orange, toasted walnut, and brandied cherry, evolving to almonds, camphor, and dried fruits. On the palate, cane sugar and chestnut honey lead to vanilla pods and cocoa, finishing with coconut milk, honeysuckle, and a touch of tobacco and spice. A powerful, elegant rum that captures the essence of Andalusian influence and Hampden craftsmanship.
Rumtown CACD 2004 17 Year Old Venezuelan Rum 50cl
A single cask production yielding only 264 bottles. Matured in American oak casks from 2004 to 2012 then shipped to the Dominican Republic in same cask and aged for a further 3 years. In 2016, shipped to the UK and refilled into the recycled rum oak casks in June 2017. The enticing, rich nut-brown colour almost hides the fact that this is a golden rum. Quickly however the golden rum characteristics shine through with delightful toffee notes on the pronounced nose that excites the senses for what is to follow on the palate. There is no disappointment, the mouth is coated with refined and soft flavours of treacle, vanilla and spiced all rounded off with subtle dark chocolate notes.
