Hampden Pagos Release 2023
Founded in 1753, the Hampden Estate in Trelawny, in the grand cru of Jamaican rum, is famous for its intense pure single rum heavy pot stills, produced using the same unique and secret methods that date back to the 18th century. Fermentation is extremely prolonged, with natural yeasts; distillation is 100% artisanal, in copper double retort pot stills; the water used throughout the production process comes from an uncontaminated natural source. Ageing takes place exclusively at Hampden, in a tropical climate.
This second release of Hampden Pagos rum was entirely aged in 80 ex-Sherry barrels from Bodegas Fundador and specially purchased after being selected by Luca Gargano. The rum consists of a 14-barrel blend of HLCF 2021, aged in the barrels in June 2022. Hampden Pagos is the first ever experiment in ageing Hampden rum in ex-Sherry casks, and the name Pagos is derived from the definition of parcels and terroir in the Sherry tradition. Pagos is the perfect marriage of a rich, unique rum and the finest ex-Sherry casks. An unmistakable aromatic profile, a genuine rum that needs no tricks: strictly no added sugar.
