Equiano Rum Ominira - African-Caribbean Rum
Special features: Inspired by the life story of the freedom fighter Olaudah Equiano, this limited edition blended rum combines rums from the Caribbean island of Barbados and Mauritius. This vintage blend matured for at least eleven years in former bourbon and cognac casks before completing its depth in sherry casks. The bottling is limited to 3,000 bottles and received the coveted Gold status at the 2024 International Wine & Spirit Competition.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Intense aromas of ripe tropical fruits, vanilla, and a subtle spice, accompanied by hints of dark chocolate.
Palate: Full-bodied with powerful notes of caramelized sugar, oak, balsamic notes, and a touch of fine spices.
Finish: Long-lasting and warming with subtle sweetness and a pleasant, spicy edge.
Distillery/Bottler: Behind Equiano Rum are the renowned master blenders Ian Burrell and Richard Seale, who bridge the gap between African heritage and Caribbean rum tradition with this collaboration. The rums used come from the award-winning Foursquare Distillery in Barbados and Gray’s in Mauritius. The brand honors the story of Olaudah Equiano, who is regarded as a symbol of freedom and overcoming oppression.
