The Whisky Jury - The Many Faces of Rum - The Duo Chapter 4 - Long pond x Hampden - 54.2% - 70cl -

For the fourth chapter of The Duo, The Many Faces of Rum brings together two complementary Jamaican profiles: Long Pond 1998 (27 years) and Hampden 2014 (11 years), united in a refill barrel. This construction combines the depth of an old Long Pond with the ester‑driven energy of a younger Hampden. The aromatic profile mixes Jamaican esters, ripe tropical fruits, elegant oak, solventy notes and a streak of freshness that prevents any heaviness. On the palate, the texture is broad and generous, with the structure and patina of the Long Pond balanced by the lively funk and tropical punch of Hampden. The finish is long and ester‑rich, stretching out with great elegance thanks to the extended maturation.
