    The Spiritsproject Rum from Jamaica C<>H is a rare, aged selection from Hampden distillery, bottled by The Whisky Jury. Distilled in 1993, aged for 28 years, this rum offers a vibrant union of pineapple, lime, and mango, balanced with oak and warm spices. Bottled at cask strength 59.1% ABV, it presents a complex nose of fruitcake, vanilla, and frankincense and a palate rich in red fruit and esters. Limited to 115 bottles, it elicits a layered, estery experience praised for its depth and balance, though acidity and varnish notes divide opinions. Definitely a collectors’ delight providing a challenging yet rewarding tasting journey.

    "An absolute stunner. 1993 remains a (mostly) absolutely impressive vintage. Intense, complex, full of aromatics - simply inspiring. Great release!"

    "Heavenly nose! Pineapple, marzipan, ester funk and great depth. Everything you'd expect from a Hampden - perfectly packed together. Then on the palate, an unearthly punch (in a positive sense), coupled with a smoky sweetness. Endless, fruity finish. Absolute Hampden Champions League! 🔥🇯🇲"

    "Sehr leckerer alter, kontinentaler Hampden 👌 richtig schön intensiv und mit feiner Aromatik. Lediglich die Säure könnt für meinen Gusto etwas weniger sein – aber das ist Jammern auf hohem Niveau. Mag tropisch lieber, aber der hier ist lecker 👌👌"
