What is Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum?
Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum is a flavorful spirit that captures the essence of traditional Jamaican rum-making, featuring a rich blend of esters and funky notes that dance on the palate. Interestingly, this rum is actually a blend of two distinct Jamaican rums: one from the famed Worthy Park Estate and another from an undisclosed distillery, each aged for different periods to create a complex and balanced profile.
Why do we love Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum?
Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum stands out for its bold, funky flavor profile that captures the essence of traditional Jamaican rum production. This high-ester rum is distilled in pot stills at Worthy Park Estate, then aged for up to 5 years in once-used bourbon barrels, resulting in a complex spirit with notes of overripe banana, pineapple, and a hint of smoky molasses that adds depth and character to classic tiki cocktails and modern rum creations alike.
How do you drink Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum?
Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum shines in bold, tropical cocktails that can stand up to its robust flavor profile, but it's equally enjoyable sipped neat or on the rocks for those who appreciate its funky complexity. This versatile spirit is perfect for sipping on warm summer evenings or pairing with spicy Caribbean dishes, where its rich notes of molasses and tropical fruit can complement the vibrant flavors of the cuisine.

Nose: Ripe banana, burnt sugar, and molasses lead the way. Hints of oak, vanilla, and baking spices add depth. A touch of ethanol is present but not overpowering.
Palate: Bold and funky, with prominent notes of overripe tropical fruits like pineapple and mango. Caramelized brown sugar and dark honey provide sweetness. Spicy black pepper and clove flavors emerge, balanced by a subtle nuttiness reminiscent of toasted almonds.
Finish: Long and warming. The funky fruit notes linger, accompanied by a pleasant oak dryness. A slight medicinal quality appears, alongside lingering spice and a hint of tobacco. The finish leaves a satisfying warmth in the chest.
Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold Rum is crafted using traditional copper pot stills, a method that preserves the rich, funky flavors Jamaica is famous for. What sets this rum apart is its unique blend of high-ester distillates from both Worthy Park and Hampden Estate, two of Jamaica's most respected distilleries, resulting in a bold and complex spirit that showcases the best of Jamaican rum-making traditions.
