Hampden Estate 'The 8 Marks Collection Aged 1 Year' Jamaican Rum offers a deep dive into the rich heritage of Jamaican rum-making. Originating from the iconic Hampden Estate in Trelawny Parish, Jamaica, this collection captures the unique character of the distillery's signature marks. The collection features eight distinct rums, each aged for a year and bottled at 52% ABV.

This array of profiles provides an exceptional tasting journey, allowing rum aficionados to experience the full spectrum of Hampden Estate's signature pot still distillation and aging techniques.

This collection is perfect for sipping neat, best enjoyed slowly to appreciate the intricate layers of flavor that unfold with each sip. It's also an invaluable resource for those interested in blending experiments or simply diving deeper into the art of Jamaican rum production.
