Habitation Velier Hampden 2019 LROK Ex-Sherry Pure Single Rum

, , , ,

Habitation Velier Hampden 2019 LROK Ex-Sherry Pure Single Rum is part of the highly anticipated release from VELIER. In 2016 VELIER launched the Habitation Velier range, being the world’s only range of Pure Single Rums acting as a reference point to the type of rum produced by each distillery’s unique pot still.

The term ‘Pure Single Rum’ defines a rum from a single distillery, distilled exclusively in pot stills. Pot still rums are more complex and typically more suitable to long ageing. The vintage Pure Single Rums are entirely aged in the tropics, ensuring a natural, accelerated aging compared to European ageing, at the expense of higher angels share.

This Jamaica Pure Single Rum is a blend of 9 ex-Sherry Lustau casks, both Pedro Jiménez and Oloroso. Bottled at a high grade after 5 years tropical ageing, it has an ester content of 292.20 g/hlpa. The Angels’ Share is > 34%.
