Hampden Estate has announced the launch of its oldest rum expression to date.

Hampden Estate Fifteen (50% ABV) is a 15 Year Old Jamaican single rum, crafted using traditional copper double-retort pot stills and matured in ex-Bourbon casks.

This latest release from the Trelawny, Jamaica-based distillery was distilled to an ester level of 200–400 g/HLAP and is said to capture Hampden’s high-ester signature profile and vibrant aromatic intensity.

Aged entirely in Jamaica’s hot, humid climate, more than 75% of the spirit is lost to the angel’s share — a level comparable to significantly older spirits. This extreme maturation process concentrates esters and amplifies complexity, resulting in a rum of exceptional richness and full-bodied texture.

Hampden Estate Fifteen opens with vibrant citrus oils, marmalade and lush tropical fruit, including ripe mango and papaya. The palate is silky and expansive, revealing layers of cinnamon and clove intertwined with delicate floral notes and opulent dried fruits, before finishing with long, warming notes of ginger spice, liquorice, grilled pineapple and a subtle thread of bitter chocolate.

Launched as a new permanent release, Hampden Estate Fifteen is now available from selected specialist retailers for a RRP of £370.00.
