Distilled in 2009 at the Hampden distillery in Jamaica, this 12-year-old rum bears the DOK mark, one of the distillery's highest ester levels. Aged in casks and bottled at cask strength (58.2%), it is limited to just 433 bottles.
This rum is a true demonstration of the Hampden style in its most exuberant form. The DOK mark (Dermot Owen Kelly-Lawson) indicates an extremely high ester concentration, often exceeding 1500 g/hlpa. Its long cask aging imparts complexity and roundness, balancing its natural intensity.
A vibrant tasting experience
The nose reveals powerful aromas of pineapple, tropical fruits, and a characteristic touch of solvent and Jamaican funk.
On the palate, the texture is surprisingly silky, offering an explosion of perfectly integrated esters, with sweet and fruity notes in the background.
The long, lingering finish leaves a bold and unforgettable impression. RumClub Private Selection - Ed. 25 Hampden 2009 is a gem for lovers of extreme and authentic Jamaican rums.
