This expression blends molasses rum from the Caribbean with sugar cane juice rum from Africa to create this one-of-a-kind dram. Aged for a minimum of eight years and carefully cultivated in two different yet distinct tropical climates means Equiano matures at a far faster rate than many other dark spirits, delivering a liquid that is like no other.

To finish: Although Equiano is a naturally sweet rum with no added sugar or spices, it has a medium to sweet ending with touches of oak, anise, sweet pepper with a hint of bitter orange peel. Made with collaboration between the very well respected Foursquare (from Barbados) and Gray's Distillery (from Mauritius). There are two distilleries, Foursquare and Gray's Distillery, who make the rum, while the brand is owned and run by drinks marketeers Aaisha Dadral and Amanda Kakembo, Rum Ambassador Ian Burrel and more.

The rolling hills of Wales are so rarely remembered, and yet they hold some of the most interesting history in all of the United Kingdom. ON THE PALATE
The initial mouthfeel of this light rum is a medium sweet taste of ripe sugarcane, more tropical fruit and citrus peel, layered with green apples, pears and hints of vanilla and light oak on the palate. Equiano is a blend of 11 year aged ex-cognac cask rum from Gray's distillery in Mauritius, married with 8 year aged ex-bourbon cask rum from Foursquare in Barbados. Among these captivating narratives, the cunning ruse at Devil’s Bridge stands prominent, setting the stage for an extraordinary drink: the Devil’s Bridge Spiced Rum. Equiano is a premium, limited batch aged rum, that is 100% natural, with no additives, no flavourings, no spice and certainly no added sugar.

We made this pledge before we had a business registered, before a name or a product had been conceived.On the nose: Like any quality premium rum, Equiano subtly delivers tropical warmth as soon as its aroma touches your nose. Equiano starts its journey at Gray's distillery in Mauritius, where fresh molasses is barrelled for 10 years in a combination of French Limousin Oak and Cognac casks, giving the liquid complexity and depth of flavour.
