Equiano Rum
Tasting notes from the producer
Nose: Like any quality premium rum, Equiano subtly delivers tropical warmth as soon as its aroma touches your nose. Rich, notes of dried fruits such as raisins and sultanas combine with sweet toffee, butterscotch and caramel culminating with a suggestion of orange peel, vanilla and buttered wood.
Palate: Equiano delivers all the naturally sweet notes of a well-aged rum from American white oak ex-bourbon casks. It has a warm toffee and butterscotch mouth feel, with chewy raisins and brown sugar flavours that emerge from the liquid as it caresses your tongue.
Finish: Although Equiano is a naturally sweet rum with no added sugar or spices, it has a medium to sweet ending with touches of oak, anise, and sweet pepper with a hint of bitter orange peel.
