The Isle of Barra Distillers has just launched their very first Island Dark Rum, which is infused with exotic botanicals, including carrageen seaweed, coconut, cardamom, cloves, lemon and orange peel.
We have yet to sample what sounds like an amazine rum, but we have read the tasting notes, which have certainly whet the appetite: on the nose, coconut and clove present first, followed by a crisp maritime freshness.
To taste, coconut and brown sugar flavour with a clean and dry mouth feel, while the finish provides the complex warmth of cardamom.
