Description

Rum is aged in casks to impart flavour into the wood in preparation for the final stages of malt whisky maturation. After initial use, this spirit is often sold on or even disposed of. An undiscovered treasure which has now been repurposed to form the base of Discardedโ€™s next fruity-forward spirit. The additional flavour profile comes from an unlikely source, banana peel. As an extract, banana peel provides a fresh toffee note with a fruity balance that perfectly complements the complexity of the base rum.

Tasting notes: Warm banana bread and treacle, with notes of dried fruit, toasted cinnamon and rich butterscotch. Rich flavours of banoffee pie and sticky toffee pudding, with deep fruity flavours of milk chocolate raisins and a crystallized ginger finish.

Discarded Rum

Oliver's Review

The most surprising find of the year may also have been my favourite rum of 2021! Discarded Banana Peel Rum is a niche rum, one that deserves more recognition; not only because of the taste, but because of the message it tries to leave behind.

Discarded Spirits aims to live up to its name by creating spirits from typically discarded ingredients. Think, what happens when you finish eating a banana? You throw the peel away. What does Discarded Spirits do? They take those banana peels and create one of the easiest drinking rums Iโ€™ve had the pleasure of tasting.

My tasting notes:

๐Ÿ‘ƒ- Banoffee ๐ŸŒ, milk chocolate ๐Ÿซ, sugar cane

๐Ÿ‘…- Banoffee ๐ŸŒ, milk chocolate ๐Ÿซ, dried fruits ๐Ÿ‡

๐Ÿ- Banana ๐ŸŒ, smooth chilli ๐ŸŒถ

Rating: 10/10
