Solera aging
In this blog post, we'll briefly discuss the Solera aging system. It's a widely used Spanish-style system that leads a bit of a double life: it's considered both qualitative and controversial. I'm happy to give you an overview.

Hampden Estate
In this blog post we're going to put an iconic brand in the spotlight: Hampden Estate.
Hampden Estate bestaat eigenlijk al sinds 1684, maar de productie faciliteit dateert van 1753. De distillery is gelegen in Trelawny, Jamaica, en is gekend vanwege zijn heel smaakvolle pot still Rums. Binnen de wereld van high ester vallen ze naar mijn mening binnen de meer toegankelijke Rums die duidelijk Jamaica Rum zijn, maar tegelijkertijd geen bruuske smaken naar voor brengen.
