Launched in October 2015, Matugga Spiced Rum is triple pot-distilled from fermented (for 7 days) East African sugar-cane molasses and aged in uncharred English oak casks to produce a golden rum which is then combined with a blend of African black tea, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla and cardamom.
Review and Tasting
Sampled on 31/05/2016
Appearance:
Clear but not bright, mid-golden amber.
Aroma:
Pungent and estery. Freshly sawn old oak, blackened fruitcake, raisins and sultanas with cinnamon, clove, vanilla and black pepper.
Taste:
Fruitcake, treacle and bitter zesty orange with vanilla, cinnamon, cloves, warming cardamom and black tea. Faint medicinal notes of plasters and disinfectant – in a good way.
Aftertaste:
Lingering blacked fruitcake with cinnamon, gingerbread and cracked black pepper.
Overall:
Pungent and estery with blackened fruitcake and warming Christmassy spice.
