Neptune Rum

Bottling Note

By Neptune's beard - it's Neptune Rum! This is a blend of eight, five and three year aged golden rum distilled from pure sugar cane molasses at Foursquare Distillery on the island of Barbados. That blend was matured in American bourbon oak barrels before it filtered using a specific cold filtration process and diluted with soft spring water to its bottling strength of 40% ABV.

Neptune Rum is perfect for enjoying over ice or with your favourite mixer. The name also definitely a reference to the Roman god of freshwater and the sea, not the eighth planet in our solar system or 1990s/2000s hip-hop production duo.

Tasting Note

Nose: Maple syrup, fresh apricot and vanilla are followed by prickles of spicy pepper and nutmeg. Warm bourbon oak and sherried peels develop.

Palate: A viscous and refined palate is filled with ripe peaches, as well as touches of shredded coconut and green banana. More vanilla is present underneath with a faint hint of returning peppercorn.

Finish: The finish is medium length and sweet, with caramelised brown sugar.
