This Bedford Park single cask captures it at full voice: distilled in 2014, aged first under the Jamaican sun and then in Europe from 2019 in an American oak ex-rum cask, and bottled in 2024 at ten years old and a formidable 66.8% ABV. Cask #434858 yielded just 239 bottles, non-chill filtered with nothing added.

Hampden's marques are a language of their own — \u0026lt;\u0026gt;H sits in the distillery's high-ester family, all ferment-driven funk and fruit.
