It is an heavy style spirit, i.d. rich in esters, with an intense and concentrated profile
The distillate "Pure Single Jamaican" is a Jamaican Rum that impresses from the very first moments of tasting with its concentrated and rich profile. This is due to the slow fermentation it undergoes, which concentrates a high level of esters, the molecules responsible for the aromas and flavors perceived both on the nose and in the mouth. A Rum that we could define as "heavy", also thanks to the period of over 7 years it spends maturing slowly in wood. A bottle for true enthusiasts, to be reserved for magical evenings.
The "Pure Single Jamaican" Rum originates from the molasses derived from the precise and punctual selection of the best sugar cane present within the plantations owned by Hampden Estate. Once the molasses is extracted, it is fermented very slowly, and the process begins thanks to the inoculation carried out by wild yeasts, with no added additives. The distillation phase then employs classic copper pot stills, which work with the discontinuous method. At the end of this process, the Rum obtained is rested for at least 8 years in oak barrels, before finally being bottled and marketed.
Rum "Pure Single Jamaican" presents itself visually with a very intense amber color, endowed with a beautiful bright light. The nose is intense and layered, orchestrated on broad notes of fruit, alternating with touches of candied citrus and sensations reminiscent of honey. On the palate, it has excellent body, rich and smooth thanks to a tasty and flavorful sip, which presents itself with remarkable persistence. Hampden Estate, a distillery that has its roots in the Jamaican terroir since 1753, features an intense and expressive label, perfect for enhancing post-dinner conversations.
