Immerse yourself in the world of exceptional rum with the Habitation Velier 2010 Hampden C<>H Jamaica 10-Year-Old 68.5% 700ml. This extraordinary rum, distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2020, hails from the renowned Hampden Distillery in Jamaica. Known for its high ester content, this rum boasts an ester range of 1300 to 1400 grams per hectolitre of pure alcohol, making it one of the heaviest rums produced by Hampden. Its robust character is further intensified by being aged for ten years in tropical conditions, during which it lost 64% of its volume to the angels' share, resulting in a rich and concentrated flavor profile. Crafted by the esteemed independent bottler Habitation Velier, this limited release consists of only 1215 bottles, each filled at cask strength with an impressive 68.5% ABV. The Hampden C<>H is produced from molasses, dunder, and muck, and distilled through a pot still with a double retort, ensuring the rum’s distinctive complexity and depth. The result is a powerful, aromatic concentrate that showcases the unique character of Jamaican rums, with layers of tropical fruit, esters, and hints of phenolic notes. On the nose, the Habitation Velier 2010 Hampden C<>H offers an enchanting blend of overripe bananas, pineapples, and other tropical fruits, interwoven with glue-like esters and subtle pastry aromas. The palate delivers an intense and full-bodied experience, featuring bold ester flavors mingled with tropical fruit notes, hints of glue, and a touch of floral and spicy undertones. The finish is long and lingering, echoing the fruity and gluey notes with additional hints of barrel, dark chocolate, and a touch of smokiness. This rum is a true testament to the art of high ester rum production and the distinctive aging process in the tropics. It is a must-try for any rum enthusiast or collector looking to experience the pinnacle of Jamaican rum craftsmanship.
