Hampden The Maverick is an exclusive release crafted by Christelle Harris, a member of the family that owns the distillery, and her husband Matthew Hann, in celebration of the birth of their son Maverick in May 2024. This blend brings together a selection of different marks and vintages: 50% HGML 2018, 40% LFCH 2020, and 10% C<>H 2021. HGML is one of the
distillery’s most intense marks, LFCH represents Hampden’s second lightest formula, while C<>H is also among the distillery’s most iconic marks. This unique edition encapsulates the depth and authentic spirit of Hampden.
Nose: Powerful and enticing. The first impression bursts with intense cane sugar and ripe tropical fruits, notably roasted pineapple. As it opens, rich layers of manuka honey blend with aromatic herbs (thyme, bay leaf), candied orange peel, and a warm spice profile featuring clove and black pepper.
Palate: Precise and vigorous. The roasted pineapple notes return, deepened by hints of dark chocolate and grilled coconut. Mid-palate brings forward savory herbs like sage and thyme, alongside evolving smoky tones and robust spices such as star anise and black cardamom. The intensity builds with waves of cocoa and liquorice.
Finish: Long and velvety. Spices like cinnamon and clove dominate the beginning, followed by earthy undertones of cacao and charred oak. A floral bouquet of violet and marigold adds elegance before the finish tapers into rich sugar cane and deeply caramelised molasses.
