Hampden is renowned for its pot-distilled rums, a testament to Jamaica's rich tradition of utilizing dunder or muck in fermentation, creating a unique depth and complexity, often referred to as the iconic Jamaican "funk."

Distilled in 2012 on a pot still and matured in an ex-bourbon barrel, this expression spent three years in the tropical Jamaican climate before being bottled in 2023 at a bold 60.4% ABV.
From Cask #11, only 245 bottles were carefully filled, each encapsulating the essence of Hampden's craftsmanship and Jamaican heritage. The extended maturation has allowed this rum to develop a symphony of flavors and aromas, offering a captivating glimpse into the diversity of Jamaican rum profiles.
