Defiance Distillery
Defiance Distillery Espresso Rum 27.5% 70cl
- Details
Oldham-based Defiance Distillery have been producing some really exciting flavoured spirits recently, so when owner Paul Sheerin informed me he had a new coffee rum available, I jumped at the chance to try it. I love rum, I love coffee, I love a really good quality coffee rum - provided the balance is there between a kick of rum, the darkness of espresso and no overly sweet notes.
A white rum (from the 'Caribbean', which is about as specific as I can get!) is infused with Brazilian coffee beans that have been roasted by a local coffee company. Using a white rum gives a lighter hit of rummy-ness, allowing the earthy coffee notes to shine through. A touch of sugar has been added, but just to balance rather than overpower.
It drinks really well neat, adds an extra dimension to the likes of an Old Fashioned, and of course will make an absolutely blinding Espresso Martini!
