The rum opens with a sweet salvo reminiscent of a tropical cocktail: vanilla, coconut, and pineapple combine with toffee and oak to delicious effect. It lies in Bourbon casks for ten years in Barbados before another one-and-a-half to two years in cognac casks back in France.

Made by Richard Seale at Foursquare Distillery on Barbados, this well-balanced spiced rum begins with ripe guava, vanilla, and nutmeg before shifting to bright red strawberries, cinnamon and citrus zest. The dry, tannic finish is long and utterly pleasant. On subsequent sips, you’ll find a hint of raisins, plums and dates. Then comes spice represented by cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of red pepper. Along with a tannic burst, the rum enters with caramel, chocolate and sugar cookie, before apple, pear and apricot make themselves known. The resulting blend is nothing short of remarkable. After three years in Bourbon barrels, Richard transferred the rum to Port casks for an additional six years. This limited edition rum from Foursquare is the darling of the rum world. The long finish exhibits cocoa notes that make the entire experience reminiscent of apple pie a la mode with ice cream and chocolate sauce.
