Key characteristics

About this rum

Hampden Estate is one of Jamaica's most storied distilleries, producing high-ester pot-still rums of genuine character on its plantation in Trelawny Parish. The Elliott Erwitt Edition is a single-estate release bottled at 60% ABV, carrying the estate's signature marks of provenance and craft.

Expect the full Hampden profile: funky, overripe tropical fruit, beeswax, and a deep, oily texture that holds its shape even at cask strength. Sip neat with a few drops of water, or deploy it as the backbone of a serious cocktail programme on board.
