Discarded Banana Peel Rum is a creative and sustainable spirit that transforms food waste into a rich and flavourful rum. Produced using Caribbean rum originally used to season whisky casks at William Grant & Sons, this unique spirit is blended with an extract made from upcycled banana peels, giving new life to an ingredient usually discarded.
The result is a beautifully indulgent rum with dessert-like character. The natural banana peel extract contributes deep notes of toffee, banana bread, and caramelised sweetness, balanced by subtle spice and rich fruity complexity.
Often described as tasting like liquid banana bread, the rum unfolds with layers of banoffee pie, sticky toffee pudding, and chocolate-coated raisins, finishing with a gentle warmth of crystallised ginger.
Part of the innovative Discarded Spirits Co. range, this rum champions sustainability while delivering an exceptional flavour profile that works equally well neat, mixed, or in cocktails.
Smooth, sweet, and wonderfully inventive, Discarded Banana Peel Rum is a perfect example of how sustainability and great taste can go hand in hand.
