Hamilton St. Lucia Cask Strength 8 Year Old Rum is distilled and aged for 8 years in American oak barrels by Saint Lucia Distillers Ltd. — a single-island authentic rum at 62.1% ABV, carbon-filtered to remove the colour gained during ageing, presenting the clean, fresh flavour of aged molasses-based rum with a slight coconut note.
Ed Hamilton spent twenty years living on a yacht sailing the West Indies, discovering the clean, fresh character of genuinely aged Caribbean rum. Hamilton Rum was created to bring those flavours to a wider audience. The carbon filtration removes the colour from the American oak ageing while preserving the flavour profile — producing a clear spirit with the complexity and depth of 8 years of maturation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the rum carbon filtered after 8 years of ageing?
The carbon filtration removes the amber colour imparted by the American oak during 8 years of maturation. Ed Hamilton's preference for the clean, fresh white rum style of the West Indies — as experienced during his sailing years — led to the decision to present the aged spirit in a clear format that recalls that style while retaining the full flavour complexity of 8 years in oak.
