Equiano Rum is a unique product that blends two cultures, two distilleries and two islands, offering a premium-aged rum that is spicing up the spirits category as the world's first African and Caribbean rum. The limited-batch rum spirit comes from Gray's in Mauritius and Barbadian distillery Foursquare. As well as offering a unique fusion of rich and deep flavors from around the world, the product also promises to appeal to others as a 100% natural rum with no spices, no colorants, no additives and no added sugar.
The premium rum product can be enjoyed in plenty of different ways—neat, on the rocks, with a mixer or as part of a cocktail. Equiano Rum is said to have notes of dried fruit, sweet toffee, butterscotch and caramel.
