The Islay Rum Company Islay Rum Peat Spiced (70cl, 40%)

The Islay Rum Company Islay Rum Peat Spiced is a spiced rum from Scotland, from the first rum distillery on Islay. Founded in January 2022 in the Old Lemonade Factory in Port Ellen, it follows Caribbean methods. The rum is made with a base of smoked orange, ginger and cacao nibs, giving it an intensely smoky flavour profile. The nose shows smoky orange peel, candied ginger, liquorice and anise. The palate brings juicy orange, rich dark chocolate, subtle vanilla, star anise and allspice. The finish recalls a smoked liquid Christmas cake with a hint of dark chocolate, warm, spicy and long-lasting.
