Equality and diversity run deep in their business and set up the Equiano Foundation whose sole purpose is to fund and support ground level freedom and equality projects annually. The unique blend is created to celebrate the diversity of cultures that came together to make the rum possible. Equiano is a multi-award winning rum company; a collaboration between two unique distilleries on two different continents, marrying the best from both the Eastern and Western hemispheres, to bring something entirely new to a centuries old craft. are on a mission to redefine a four-century-old industry by creating unique blends of rum from around the world.

Equiano is a premium, limited batch aged rum, that is 100% natural, with no colorants, no flavourings, no spice or added sugar. I received a sample of this rum in this year's (2021) MoM Advent calendar and thus far (17 days in) it has been one of the highlights.

brought these two rum purists together to create a 100% natural rum, with no spices or additives and no added sugar. It is a refined and expertly crafted tipple, aged in ex-cognac and ex-bourban barrels for an uncompromised taste and golden colour. Once blended, the rum undergoes a second maturation in Spanish Oloroso casks, adding a huge depth of character.

Equiano is a premium, limited batch aged rum, that is 100% natural, with no additives, no flavourings, no spice and certainly no added sugar. There are two distilleries, Foursquare and Gray's Distillery, who make the rum, while the brand is owned and run by drinks marketeers Aaisha Dadral and Amanda Kakembo, Rum Ambassador Ian Burrel and more. Blended with rum from Africa and the Caribbean, aromas of vanilla and dried oak are complimented by pears, pink grapefruit and grassy notes on the palate.On the nose: Like any quality premium rum, Equiano subtly delivers tropical warmth as soon as its aroma touches your nose. A rich and deep flavoured rum that has been made with no added sugar, no spice, no flavourings or colourings. Part of this exceptionally smooth rum has been aged in American oak casks by Foursquare and part has been aged in French ex cognac casks by Gray's. Tropical warmth on the nose, alongside rich notes of dried fruits and a touch of butterscotch and caramel. Named after freedom fighter Olaudah Equiano, The Equiano Rum Co donate 5% of company profits to ground-level freedom and equality projects annually.

The rum matures in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-cognac casks to create its exceptional flavour.Equiano starts its journey at Gray's distillery in Mauritius, where fresh molasses is barrelled for 10 years in a combination of French Limousin Oak and Cognac casks, giving the liquid complexity and depth of flavour.

It's then blended with award-winning rum from Foursquare, that has been barrelled in American White Oak, formally matured bourbon providing a one-of-a-kind naturally flavoured rum.
