RX12838 Excellent Pot Still Rum Single Cask 250 bottles Above 250€
“A symphony of fruits and funk; smooth with lasting warmth.”

The Jamaica Ed. 5 is a remarkable rum hailing from the Hampden distillery in Jamaica. This 29-year-old limited release was produced in 1992 using Molasses in a Pot Still and bottled by the independent bottler, The Colours of Rum. With an ABV of 58.1% and only 250 bottles in existence, this rum boasts an impressive aroma of tropical fruit, tea, herbal, minty, and banana notes. On the palate, it presents a flavorful mix of salty, tropical fruit, sweet, pineapple, and banana characteristics. RumX users appreciate its well-integrated alcohol, fruitiness, and funkiness, along with its striking balance and satisfying green aromas reminiscent of tea. Ed. 5 is noted to be slightly better than its sibling Ed. 4, making it a top-tier choice among '92 releases. Indulge in this exceptional rum for a truly exquisite experience.

“Again, an excellent and classic Hampden from the 1992 vintage. A bit sweeter and also wilder than Ed. 4. Also more salt. I like the herbaceous, spicy note from the sister cask a tad better.”
