Magnum Series #2 Hampden 13 Year Rum - 2010

700 mL
Item # 54706

This special, limited edition series brings together the fine art of photography through the work of pioneering photo agency Magnum Photos, and the art of distillation via a one-off selection of some of the finest and most artisanal spirits in the world. For series two the work featured are original creations from Alex Webb, an agency photographer since 1979. The crown jewel in the Magnum series two portfolion, this rum features spirit distilled in 2010 and aged for 13yrs making it at the time of bottling the oldest tropical aged Hampden rum available. As you can imagine, it is wildly complex and explosive in flavor with notes that lean more floral and fruit than spice hitting on kiwi, quince, geranium, plums, beeswax, camphor and brown sugar. A divine spirit.

Staff Pick Notes

"Esters in rum are organic compounds formed during fermentation and distillation... They are created when acids and alcohols combine, particularly in long-fermentation, pot-still rums, with Jamaican rums famously having the highest ester content ("high-ester")- rumwonk.com/ This is a truly special and collectable rum. While Hampden is best know for their high ester rums, the mark used here is the LROK (light rum over kelly) is a low to mid ester rum and yet it still blew my head off. Higher ester rums have a higher concentration of esters but mid level marks like LROK have a more broad divestiy of esters . For my money, the LROK is the most age worthy of the marks and this exression shows that off profoundly. Buy a 700ml to drink now and 1 of the Mags to hold.
