Hampden Sugar Estate

Great experience learning from a working high end rum producer using the same method since inception. Not a touristy place so if you are expecting a high end wine tasting/bar experience, this isn’t for you. Our hosts, Steve and Shelly were awesome. Good jerk chicken as well! Also offer tastings of their rum as well.

Amazing tour all around and great people. The place was rich with history and to see the production of one of the world’s best rum was fantastic.

We had a shore excursion from Royal Caribbean. A great Air conditioned Bus about an hour ride from the port. A forty-five minute tour of the property. Our Tour guides explained the process of making Rum really well. We tasted over proofed Rum for the first time. It was way too strong for Me, but they did add lime and bitter after to help complete the drink. It was a great experience.

We had a fantastic tour and learned all about the rum making process. The tasting at the end was wonderful and all the rums are full of a variety of incredible aromas. There is a cute gift shop right behind the tasting room. We didn’t order lunch but I absolutely will call ahead to order next time!

Absolutely amazing experience. The property was beautiful and well taken care of. Good to see historical places being preserved and cared for. Steve was our tour guide and he was excellent, very knowledgeable and an absolute asset to that company. I learned so much that even as a Jamaican I didn't know. Very thorough tour. Every sense was awakened at that place, so many different scents throughout the tour. The Food was good at the end and the rum was 👌🏽. I would definitely recommend and even revisit. The one thing I will say is it wasn't the easiest to find so double check the route Google tells you by asking locals.

This rum tour was one of the coolest distillery experiences we’ve ever had. It’s simply incomparable to any other tour experience we’ve had(Carlsburg, Heineken, Tullamore Dew, Bushmills, Jameson, etc). The tour guides are so friendly and interested in their guests. The lunch & tasting were highly personal with awesome information about the history of the estate. Steve knew the science behind distilling so well! We stayed at the Iberostar in Montego Bay which was about 1 hour from the estate. Be prepared for a very bumpy ride through the Jamaican countryside— but it’s SO worth it!!

Our tour guide, Steve, was amazing! He was fun and knowledgeable. This is one of the best tours we've been on. You get a full understanding of their rum-making process, great food, and rum tastings at the end. Would definitely recommend. Note that getting from Falmouth port to the estate can be difficult - a lot of taxis will be hesitant to take you because the roads are rough. The whole experience with transit time was just over 5 hours

Steve was amazing! This tour was amazing and very informative. I truly enjoyed the rum,the information and the food. When traveling back to Jamaica I will return.
