Donated by The Colours of Rum by Wealth Solutions
The Hampden distillery is a hidden treasure in the heart of Jamaica known for the exceptional rums it has produced for over two centuries. Nestled in this magnificent Caribbean island, Hampden is famous for its molasses-based rums made using traditional methods that combine artisanal expertise and heritage. Hampden offers rich and intense expressions, heavy rums created through long fermentations that contribute to unique and complex flavour profiles.
This exceptional bottling from Wealth Solutions (a Polish independent bottler) in its The Colours of Rum range was distilled in 1983 and aged for 39 years in a continental climate. It was then bottled at cask strength.
This bottle is the only one produced, exclusively for this unique auction.
As it stands today, it is one of the oldest rums ever bottled by Hampden, making this lot even more extraordinary.

The distillery Hampden

Rum, Jamaica. Distillery operational. Owner: Everglades Farms Ltd.

Independent & family-ownedKnown primarily in the rum, perfume and food industries, Hampden began to move out of the shadows in 2009 when the Jamaican government decided to disinvest from the national Jamaica Sugar Company and auctioned off its assets. The family-owned company Everglades Farms Ltd (owned by the Hussey family) secured the lot and became the owner of this gem which is now considered the alter ego of the Scottish distillery Ardbeg. This link with Scotland is no coincidence. Hampden Estate was bought in 1748 by Robert Stirling, who had left Perthshire (Scotland) in 1742. The Hussey family sells two expressions of its rum, including an Overproof which is particularly well-known in the bar and HORECA segment. But it was in 2017, when family-owned Italian (Velier) and French (LMDW) companies began distributing the first old rums, that Hampden really took off, rising to the ranks of the finest rums currently on the market.
