Taking its name from the Spanish word used to describe plots of vineyards in the Jerez area, Hampden Estate Pagos is the first bottling in the distillery’s history to be exclusively aged in sherry casks. Like the world’s most aromatic whiskies, such as those produced on Islay, the Jamaican rum embraces perfectly with the Andalusian wine’s notes of rancio without being overpowered by them, leading to a completely new profile of aromas.
On the palate it is racy with notes of star anise, clove, chocolate, petrol, and rum baba. The finish is balanced and persistent with notes of cocoa, citrus, apricot, quince, and woody spice.
