Cuvée presentation

This bottling is part of a series of four bottlings created by La Maison du Whisky and Velier, comprising a Hampden 5 year old, a Foursquare 16 year old, a Saint James 15 year old and a Mount Gay 14 year old. Each one of them is illustrated with a photo from Elliott Erwitt, who has been a member of the Magnum agency since 1953. Hampden Estate is the one distillery in Jamaica still producing with old techniques, with various raw materials, wild fermentations and distilling with iconic double retort pot stills. Hampden is also known for producing a large variety of distillates (marks): with an ester content of 500 to 700 gr/HLPA, this mark is identified as HLCF, has an intense character and it´s one of the most historical and representative rum of the ancient Jamaican style. The picture on this label has been taken at Coney Island, New York, in 1954.

The distillery Hampden

Rum, Jamaica. Distillery operational. Owner: Everglades Farms Ltd.

Independent & family-ownedKnown primarily in the rum, perfume and food industries, Hampden began to move out of the shadows in 2009 when the Jamaican government decided to disinvest from the national Jamaica Sugar Company and auctioned off its assets. The family-owned company Everglades Farms Ltd (owned by the Hussey family) secured the lot and became the owner of this gem which is now considered the alter ego of the Scottish distillery Ardbeg. This link with Scotland is no coincidence. Hampden Estate was bought in 1748 by Robert Stirling, who had left Perthshire (Scotland) in 1742. The Hussey family sells two expressions of its rum, including an Overproof which is particularly well-known in the bar and HORECA segment. But it was in 2017, when family-owned Italian (Velier) and French (LMDW) companies began distributing the first old rums, that Hampden really took off, rising to the ranks of the finest rums currently on the market.
