Hampden Estate Pagos Sherry Cask Rum
Details
Taking its name from the Spanish word used to describe plots of vineyards in the Jerez area, Hampden Estate Pagos is the first bottling in the distillery’s history to be exclusively aged in sherry casks. Like the world’s most aromatic whiskies, such as those produced on Islay, the Jamaican rum embraces perfectly with the Andalusian wine’s notes of rancio without being overpowered by them, leading to a completely new profile of aromas.
Tasting notes:

Nose: Refined and typical. Wax, chocolate, apricot, sugar cane, Russian leather, mango and passionfruit.
Palate: Fine and racy. Petrol, star anise, clove, chocolate éclair and rum baba.
Finish: Balanced and persistent. Cocoa, citrus fruit, ripe apricot, quince jelly, noble wood and spicy notes.
