HAMPDEN 1753

Hampden 1753 is the newest addition to the Hampden Estate core range, named after the year the legendary Jamaican distillery was founded. Crafted as the gateway into Hampden’s iconic world of high-ester rums, this release bridges nearly three centuries of traditional Jamaican rum-making with modern versatility.

Produced using time-honoured methods that define Hampden’s identity, pure limestone spring water, natural wild yeast fermentation, double-retort copper pot still distillation, tropical ageing on site, and absolutely no added sugar or colouring, Hampden 1753 is both authentic and uncompromising.

Aged for 3 years in ex-Bourbon casks and bottled at 46% ABV, it delivers a vibrant yet approachable profile. Expect aromas of candied pineapple, green banana and overripe mango, balanced with light florals and spice. On the palate, it’s fruity, funky, and textured, with the unmistakeable high-ester character that has made Hampden Estate world famous.

Perfect as an introduction for new rum drinkers curious about Jamaican funk, and equally rewarding for connoisseurs seeking a versatile sipper or cocktail base, Hampden 1753 is a must-have expression for anyone exploring authentic, terroir-driven rum.
