The DOK Trelawny Jamaica Rum is a formidable creation from the prestigious Hampden Distillery, bottled under the DOK brand. This unaged rum, bottled in 2019, is a high-ester bomb that boasts an impressive 69% ABV. With only 400 bottles produced, this limited-edition spirit is rich in character and complexity, making it a true gem for rum enthusiasts. Upon pouring, the rum's clarity is striking, with a thick ring on the surface that hints at its powerful presence. The nose immediately explodes with an intense bouquet of esters, overripe bananas, jackfruit, and a grassy undertone, complemented by acetone and glue notes. The background reveals subtle hints of chocolate, adding an intriguing layer of sweetness. On the palate, the DOK Trelawny Jamaica Rum delivers a bold and complex experience. The ester-laden profile is dominated by overripe fruit flavors, including banana and pineapple, with a touch of passion fruit and papaya. The high alcohol content provides a warm, astringent mouthfeel, balanced by a surprising sweetness and a hint of chocolate. The finish is long and astringent, with a persistent bitterness and herbal undertones that leave a lasting impression. This rum is not for the faint of heart, but for those who appreciate its intensity, it offers a rollercoaster ride of flavors that is both thrilling and satisfying. In cocktails, this rum shines, particularly in a classic daiquiri, where its complex and intense character can be fully appreciated. It's a versatile spirit that also benefits from a bit of water to temper its fiery nature and reveal even more depth and sweetness.
