  Papalin Original Vatted 7 years old Pot Still Jamaica Rum 70 cl 47%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280132

  Luca Gargano, the man behind Velier, returns to the 19th-century rum tradition, where Jamaican merchants blended rum from several distilleries under one brand.

  Expert Description

  Papalin Original Vatted 7 Year Pot Still Jamaica Rum is a Jamaica Rum, a blend of pot still rum from Hampden Estate and Worthy Park, tropically aged 7 years and bottled at 47%.

  Papalin is Luca Gargano's personal project, created to revive the lost tradition of "vatted" rum, blends of rum from several distilleries on the same island, which Jamaican merchants made in the late 1800s, before the style disappeared in the 1970s. By uniting Hampden Estate's wild, ester-rich character with Worthy Park's more balanced profile, Papalin creates a rum that shows the breadth of Jamaica's pot still tradition in a single bottle.

  The result is a complex, fat-laden rum with both medicinal and spiced tones.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Apple, candied lemon and almonds, with eucalyptus, medicinal notes and burnt wood.

  Palate

  Rich and generous with vanilla, mirabelle plum and herbaceous notes of menthol, liquorice and cardamom.

  Finish

  Long and rich with coffee eclair, acacia wood, green tea, lemon and almond milk.

  Did You Know?

  The term "vatted rum" dates back to the late 1800s, when Jamaican merchants blended rum from several distilleries on the same island to create a more balanced and saleable profile, a tradition that disappeared in the 1970s until Papalin revived it.
