Discarded BANANA PEEL Rum 37,5% Vol. 0,7l

Perfect for sustainable sipping, our Discarded Banana Peel Rum is where we turn an icon of waste into an icon of taste!

It’s a fruity, sweet rum which features a base of Caribbean rum, (originally used to season empty whisky casks at William Grant and Sons) before being blended with an extract made from banana peels . Rumour has it that it tastes like liquid banana bread, but we will let you find out for yourselves!

As an extract, banana peel provides toffee notes with a fruity balance. Flavours of banoffee pie and sticky toffee pudding, with the deep fruity milk chocolate raisins, accompanied by a crystallised ginger finish.

Delicious served neat over ice, mixed with ginger ale, or used as the base to a Discarded Banana Peel Daiquiri.

ONCE WASTED, NOW TREASURED

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 Discarded’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.
