Pagos is the Spanish word used to describe plots of vineyards in the Jerez area, so it's a fitting name for this Hampden Estate bottling, which is the first in the distillery’s history to be exclusively aged in sherry casks – Pedro Ximinez and oloroso, to be precise. Much like the way bold Islay whisky thrives in this cask profile, full-bodied, funky Jamaican rum also shines in full-term sherry maturation.
Through aromatic wood and stewed plums comes more exotic fruit, nutmeg, and toasted nuts.
Raisins, coconut, and vanilla join the party.
Slightly herbaceous with more spice and mixed nuts.

Syrupy ,dark, liquorice-y, glue. Followed by esters and traditional Jamaican pot still fiery madness. It's hot. Really, Far too young IMJ, but it's its tasty, and, I reckon, much more interesting than the 8yo. Dark, woody, comex, Jamaican mild funk. It's lovely, and captivating, and a great advery for PX sherry casks. If you love Hampden and/or Jamaican, buy it, but IMJ it's laughably overpriced. It is what is is.....
This has morphed since I first opened it. Initially, it was all dates and PX sherry sweetness, but now it's softer and more balanced. Underneath, it tastes like HLCF, and it still feels like a few more years in cask wouldn't go a miss, but overall it blens the esters and funk with enough cask and sherry layers to make a wonderful rum. It's pungent, and astringent, and yet sweet underneath, yet it's also wall to wall Hampden. Wonderful.
