An awards-show darling, Neptune Rum is a beautiful golden pot and column still rum, created from a blend of eight, five and three-year-old rums made from pure sugar cane molasses. It was distilled and matured in ex-bourbon casks at the esteemed Foursquare in Barbados, so you know we’re talking about a quality rum here. It’s got a terrifically refined and versatile profile that makes a cracking Espresso Martini or Old Fashioned.
What does it taste like?
Maple syrup, fresh apricot, vanilla, nutmeg, warm bourbon oak, sherried peel, ripe peaches, shredded coconut and green banana.
