Each rum produced by Hampden Estate carry a "mark" which corresponds to a certain level of ester concentration.

Hampden Estate's The 8 Marks Collection Aged 1 Year invites rum connoisseurs to explore all 8 marks, aged 1 year.

These rums are produced according to the typical Hampden Estate methods, using a unique combination of wild fermentation and long distillation in pot stills, which gives the rum its trademark exceptionally high ester content. This process, coupled with aging for one year in tropical conditions, creates bold and funky flavors that are prized for their intense fruity and spicy notes.

  • Hampden Estate's "The 8 Marks Collection" uses a 17th-century Jamaican classification system for rum, where each "mark" represents a specific ester concentration.
  • Despite its young age, this rum contains esters (flavor compounds) at levels up to 1600 grams per hectoliter of alcohol—over 16 times higher than most other rums. This results from Hampden's use of wild fermentation and dunder pits, giving the rum its signature "funk" and intense tropical fruit notes.
  • The distillery uses spring water from its own limestone-filtered source, which has the exact pH and mineral content as the water in Cognac, France. This geological coincidence contributes to the rum's unique character and connects it to another celebrated spirits-producing region.
  • Main Ingredient: Rum
    Country of Origin: Jamaica
