The Funkiest Overproof in Jamaica
Jamaica has three great white overproofs — Wray & Nephew, Rum Bar, and Rum Fire — and Rum Fire is the funkiest of the three. Introduced in 2011 as Hampden Estate's unaged flagship, it's distilled entirely in pot stills from molasses fermented 10–14 days with wild yeast, and bottled at a full 63% with no additives and no sugar. The HLCF marque sits at 500–600 grams of esters per hectoliter of absolute alcohol — that's the chemistry behind the explosion of overripe banana, mango, pineapple, spice, green olive and smoke. One of the most characterful spirits on the white rum shelf, full stop. Browse the rum collection or see more from Rum Fire.
Tasting Notes
Explosive fruity nose — overripe banana, mango, pineapple, spices, green olive, smoke. The palate is intense and spicy with pepper and overripe tropical fruit; long, balanced, distinctive finish.
How to Enjoy
A little goes a long way: an ounce lifts a daiquiri or tiki drink into overdrive. Brave sippers take it neat with water on the side — respect the 126 proof.
