Equiano Original 8-Year

Equiano - afro karibský kalibr. Foursquare tady má svůj podpis. Celkem dobře pitelný rum. Nicméně si myslím, že obsah lahve by měl mít jinou cenovku.

Dalsi suchy rum, bol by celkom fajn, nebyt tej cenovky.

Good overall, but not my favorite. A bit one note. Some smoke.

One of many with no added sugar and spicy. Taste of vanilla, raisins, orange.

Real good combination of Mauricius and Barbados. Cocoa and caramel in aroma. Smooth start of the body and then Richard Seal's signature.

Great product from Richard Seale. Similiar to R.L.Seale's. Not that dry, a bit sweeter start and with characteristic Foursquare profile.

Nice elegant, fresh and warm rum with gentle long sweetness and fruits with some vanilla and oak.

Everyone has already mentioned Ian Burrell / Seale collaboration so straight to the rum. Great bottle look and presentation. Beautiful light brown hues to the rum in the glass. I’m nosing a slight cinnamon scent very pleasing. Easy drinking the cinnamon, notes of cognac, very subdued bourbon flavors. Really quite nice slightly sweet, hope it’s produced again.

I just wonder whether the Mauritian and Bajan rums wouldn't be better by themselves rather than blended.

But what there is, is very pleasant. An intense sweetness (natural) married with soft oak, and a nice touch from the Cognac casks. Smooth and with a medium-long finish. It's a very good rum, but as I said, separately they might be better or at least, more interesting. Ultimately I have a fair few 8yo-14yo Barbados rums so that's nothing new. But I have far few Mauritian rums, and a 10yo would be more interesting to me than this blend.

This nice brown African/Caribbean rum gives you the experience of a sweet joyride down the beach side
