Kill Devil Jamaica Hampden 35 years 58.1°: Description and customer reviews

Like all the rums from this venerable house, this Hampden has been pot still distilled. But not all have aged for 35 years!

Much of the ageing took place on site, and some in Scotland, where the cask was held by a broker for a long time.

Distilled in 1983 andcask strengthbottled in 2019 by Edition Spirits in Glasgow under the Kill Devil brand, this rum has retained all its aromatic power.

Only 198 bottles were made from this unique barrel.

    An exceptional rum with a very pleasant nose, notes of ripe/rotten fruit, notes of wood varnish and engine oil, it should be noted that it must be left in the glass for at least 1 hour to enjoy all these qualities. Once in the mouth, the first thing is that it dries out the entire palate, then come notes of banana and pineapple to arrive at a very dark but delicate woody note and finally finish with notes of varnish and engine oil, very dark but very well balanced with a come-back side and on the rest of the sips, always the very dry but softer side and a beautiful cry in the spices, clove, pepper, notes of green bananas and once again the wood, varnish and engine oil, a very well integrated alcohol in the end, a 58° feeling 49/50 For my rating, I cannot give a quality/price ratio because it is out of category for me But in terms of aromatic concentration and aromatic diversity, it is 19/20 Integration of alcohol 18/20 Length in the mouth 20/20 In short, a traditional English rum made from molasses distilled in a Jamaican Steel pot of impeccable quality and incomparable taste level, once again Hampden did its job very well and Kill Devil bottled it very well.
