KILL DEVIL - Hampden 2007 - Pot Still - 13 ans - Single Cask - 65.80%
Edition Spirits is an independent bottling company founded by brothers Scott and Andrew Laing in Glasgow. They are the sons of Stewart Laing; Hunter Laing director and former Douglas Laing founder. Scott and Andrew joined their father Stewart at Hunter Laing when he split from Douglas Laing in 2013. Edition Spirits became an operational arm of Hunter Laing and the First Editions series was moved across to join its portfolio. Whilst they are specialists in blended and Single Malt whiskies, over the years they have been fortunate enough to acquire stocks of aged rums, from places such as Guyana and Jamaica.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, islanders referred to their locally made distillates as Kill Devil. Whilst today many of the old superstitions have gone, the Caribbean is still the source of many exotic rums. The Kill Devil series showcases the quality and diversity of rum from the Caribbean and further afield. Single Casks are specially selected for shipment to Scotland, to be carefully and traditionally bottled by hand.
This rum was distilled in pot still in November 2007 at Hampden Distillery in Jamaica. It was aged for 13 years before being bottled in Scotland. 269 bottles have been produced.
