Equiano Rum (43% abv)
$102.99
Equiano Rum is the delicious result of a collaboration between two fabulous distilleries, marrying liquid from Barbados’ Foursquare and Gray’s Distillery of Mauritius. The rum from Foursquare is aged in American white oak, while the liquid from Gray’s is aged in French limousin oak and Cognac casks. It’s then married in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at Foursquare, weighing in at 43% ABV. Two hemispheres meet in one bottle, and it’s rather marvellous.
What’s more, the spirit is named after Olaudah Equiano, a freedom fighter who played a pivotal part in the abolition movement, and the folks behind Equiano Rum donate 5% of the annual profits to ground level equality projects each year.
Nose: Buttery oak up front, followed by marmalade on toast, chocolate truffle and dried berries.
Palate: Still rich in chocolate and oak, though now with butterscotch and stem ginger in support.
Finish: Juicy raspberry, orange oils and caraway.
