This pure rum Hampden 8 Year Old from Hampden Estate was created in collaboration with the famous Italian distillery Velier. The rum is sourced from Jamaica and is made according to a recipe dating back to the 18th century. It is the flagship of the range, perfectly embodying the aromatic complexity and versatility for which the brand is renowned.
Hampden is known for producing incredibly high-ester rums that are created using wild fermentation and packed with tropical fruit flavours. No sugar is added to the rum. It is distilled exclusively in pot stills using locally sourced spring water and tropical aged in 190 litre ex-bourbon casks for 8 years. The combination of these factors will transport you to true rum heaven.
The bottles have been bottled at 46 % alcohol and come in a gift box. The visuals of the box, as well as the bottle label, detail and describe the pillars and legacy of the brand.

Clairin Communal is unique an authentic white rum from Haiti made from organic sugar cane grown without pesticides, fermented with natural yeast and distilled using a traditional method.
And when we say authentic, we really mean it. The entire production process takes place in Haiti. The soil is cultivated by hand, the sugar cane is chopped by hand, then pressed on artisanal presses, often driven by cattle. Fresh cane juice ferments wildly in vats buried in the ground in a tropical climate. Distillation is coming, for which the remains of sugar cane are used. Such fresh spirits from local distilleries from the Clairin Traditionnel union are taken to Port-au-Prince, where they are bottled without adding water or any other treatment. And so they travel to you. Unedited and authentic.
It is made from different rums that come from the Cavaillon, Barraderes, Pignon and St. Michel de l'Attalaye. This reflects the unique characteristics of Haiti's different terroirs, where different sugarcane is grown, with different processing methods, which is also reflected in the varied taste.
