    • Well-balanced tropical fruit aroma
    • Smooth integration of high ABV
    • Limited edition appeal

    The Triple Entente by Hampden, selected by Velier, is a Jamaican unaged rum distilled from molasses using pot stills, with a robust 62% ABV. Known for its limited release of only 600 bottles, it captivates with tropical fruit and pineapple aromas, accompanied by distinct esters and subtle spices. On the palate, it unfolds a sweet, fruity essence with underlying bitterness and fermented notes. While appreciated for its balanced and smooth character, some purists find its profile less bold compared to typical high ester rums.

    "Today the Velier Triple Entente in the glass. The last of the bunch: Hampden Here, too, the nose is the most appealing! Almost as one-dimensional on the palate as the Foursquare, only a little more pleasing and intense. I'm glad I resisted the temptation to buy this set. Perhaps still okay as a show and collector's item, but nothing more."

    "The whole Entente set had to face DomM and me, both neat and in a daiquiri. The Foursquare is very interesting, but takes some getting used to. I had a certain cauliflower, cooked kohlrabi association here. In my opinion, the Hampden is the most balanced and the typical Hampden notes are also easy to recognize unaged. The alcohol is also perfectly integrated here. The Neisson is as it should be and what you expect from it, not bad but unfortunately nothing outstanding either. The ranking remains the same both neat and in a daiquiri. 1st Hampden 2nd Foursquare 3rd Neisson"

    "Starts off very spice heavy with cinnamon and backing spices. Some vanilla and cream. With some time to breath tropical fruits and fruit acids show up. A hint of smoke. Well balanced on the palate with a nice creamy texture. Some sweetness and fruits (pineapple and citrus) take center stage. Some bitterness and a hint of salt towards the finish."

    "8,3:On the nose, the first impression we get are fermented, estery tropical fruits and vegetal, nutty molasses with some confectionery. On aeration, we are whirled in winterly feeling with baking spices and herbal, dried fruits notes as with more rest we come to earthy, peated notes. Nicely integrated alcohol. 8,4:On the palate, the attack is estery with fruity and confectionery like notes, overripe tropical, dried fruits and sweet, nutty, caramelized pastry. The molasses is vegetal and earthy, spicy and waxy.We might get a feeling of tasting sweet pastry with delicious fruit marmelade. After resting the rum, new wave of tasting notes arise, a bit more bitter with peat, olive, hay, phenol.Even some pear and saddle notes come out. 8,4:The finish is long, delicious with fruit marmelade and different vegetal notes with some spice, nuts..."
