A dry, funky Hampden from Corman Collins, all nail polish, overripe banana and burnt pineapple over baking spice, tobacco and coffee, bottled unsweetened from a single sixteen-year 2001 cask at 60.4%.
Description
Bottled by Belgian house Corman Collins, this is Hampden distilled in 2001 and aged sixteen years in ex-bourbon, drawn from a single cask at 60.4%. Hampden in Trelawny is the island's benchmark for high-ester funk, and the H marque here sits firmly in heavy territory.
The nose is unmistakably Hampden, glue and nail polish over overripe tropical fruit and ester, while the palate piles on banana, burnt pineapple and solvent before extra age brings baking spice, tobacco and a coffee-like dryness. An atypical spicy, wood-driven layer sits on top of the classic funk, added by the sixteen years in barrel. Certified unsweetened and full-bodied, it sips long and warming, a funk bomb for drinkers who already know and want the loudest end of Jamaican pot still.
