Hampden Estate The 8 Marks Tasting Collection

Hampden Estate presents the first ever opportunity to taste all the specific identities of Hamoden marks in succession This tasting tool offers the ultimate opportunity to deeply understand the 8 marks and what makes each one unique. It contains information on the 8 different combinations of raw materials and processes and some significant data extracted from extensive chemical analysis through gas chromatography.

Crossing this information with your own organoleptic analysis is the best way to experience and understand the full spectrum of marks produced at
Hamoden Estate.

Keep in mind that this innovative exercise of tasting and comparing the different marks remains a subjective one and each taster can perceive aromas and flavours in a different way. Esters are present in such tiny quantities, even when considered all together, it would not make sense to try to perceive and analyze each one individually. Tasting conditions, like temperature (we recommend tasting at 20°C), and the volatile nature of the rums can have a significant impact on the experience for each taster. The academical elements presented in this kit are designed as a guide to accompany your empirical tastings.
