Carefully aged in a single cask, this limited release comprises only 241 bottles, each capturing the essence of Hampden’s signature high-ester profile. With an ABV of 55.6%, this cask strength rum is not only powerful but also remarkably balanced. On the nose, it reveals an inviting bouquet of tropical fruits such as banana and grilled pineapple, intertwined with the sweet notes of marzipan, vanilla, and a hint of Mediterranean antipasti.
