KILL DEVIL - Hampden 2007 - Pot Still - 13 years - Single Cask - 65.80%
Edition Spirits is a premium independent bottling company founded by brothers Scott and Andrew Laing in Glasgow, in the heart of Scotland. They are the sons of the renowned Stewart Laing, Director of Hunter Laing and former founder of Douglas Laing, iconic figures in the whisky and spirits industry. After Stewart Laing's separation from Douglas Laing in 2013, Scott and Andrew joined the family business Hunter Laing. Edition Spirits quickly became a strategic operational branch of Hunter Laing, integrating the prestigious First Editions series into its exclusive portfolio. Specializing in exceptional Blended and Single Malt whiskies, they have also distinguished themselves by carefully acquiring rare stocks of aged rums, notably from French Guiana and Jamaica, thus offering unparalleled diversity and aromatic richness.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, inhabitants of the Caribbean islands referred to their local distillates by the evocative name "Kill Devil." While many superstitions related to these brews have disappeared, the Caribbean remains an essential source of exceptional rums with varied and captivating aromatic profiles. The Kill Devil series celebrates the incomparable quality as well as the richness and diversity of Caribbean rum and beyond. Each Single Cask is rigorously selected to be shipped to Scotland, where it is traditionally hand-bottled respecting the most refined artisanal methods, thus guaranteeing an exceptional rum for enthusiasts and collectors.
This exceptional rum was distilled in a pot still in November 2007 at the famous Hampden distillery in Jamaica. It underwent meticulous aging of 13 years before being bottled in Scotland with a powerful alcohol content of 65.80%. This limited edition counts only 269 bottles, making this Single Cask a rare and sought-after gem for discerning connoisseurs.
