This 12 year old rum was produced at the multi award winning Foursquare distillery on the Caribbean island of Barbados. It is rich and sweet with notes of butterscotch and tropical fruit and has a full-bodied viscous mouthfeel with flavours of toffee apple, toasted spices and orange.

This 14 year old rum was produced at the Foursquare rum distillery on Barbados which was awarded rum producer of the year in 2018 at both the IWSC and International Spirits Challenge - no mean feat. The rum is a blend of pot and column still rums that have been aged predominantly in bourbon casks as well as some Madeira casks which help impart flavours on dark chocolate, red berries, tropical fruit and sweet spices.

Foursquare's legendary 'Exceptional Cask Selection' reaches mark XXI with the release of this 2010 vintage rum. Solely matured in ex-bourbon American white oak barrels, we see this blend of pot and column still rums all made and matured on-site in Barbados. A rush of dark caramels, dark fruit and coconut develops to a wood-forward profile of tobacco and fragrant spices. A tropical tone lifts through the palate, with a slightly minty-menthol character as well. The cult following of the Foursquare distillery is well deserved and this is an excellent example of the style.

The oldest bottling of Foursquare Rum to date, this eighteen year old expression was distilled in 2004 and 2005 and matured fully in ex Bourbon casks for ten years, before being vatted and reduced in strength and left to continue maturation for a further eight years. The nose opens up with a big hit of tropical sweetness. Juicy pineapple aromas, alongside ripe mango and cacao join with notes of freshly baked banana bread and boozy sultanas. The palate opens up with sweet chewy caramel sweetness, giving way to sweet dates, more juicy mango, and orange infused dark chocolate. The finish is delicate, dry and tannic, with notes of dried hazelnuts, black tea and herbal eucalyptus, with faint burned rubber and peppery ginger.

The Equipoise marks Foursquare's first release of rum partially matured in ex-Calvados casks. This outturn comprises of a ten year old ex-Bourbon cask rum, with a further four years in ex-Calvados casks, blended with a fourteen year old ex-Bourbon cask Rum. The resulting single blended expression was then presented at 61%ABV with no added colouring or chillfiltration. On the nose there are notes of fresh ginger and dried raisins, alongside tart notes of plum skins and granny smith apples. Dark chocolate and sweet pastry notes round off the nose. The palate begins with soft creamy notes of gently spiced apple pie served with vanilla bean ice cream, intermingled with tropical notes of coconut. The coconut notes continue on through the finish, combined with hazelnuts, black tea and more hints of fresh ginger.

Another exciting release from Foursquare distillery in Barbados, this fourteen year old expression has seen five years of maturation in ex-Bourbon casks, with at least nine years in a ex- Cognac cask. Tropical mango notes waft up from the glass, combined with tart notes of plum skin, juicy crisp white pears and hints of parsnip. Orange oil and vanilla aromas intermingle with leathery tones and a slight medicinal quality on the end of the nose. The palate is soft, juicy and fruity, jam packed with red grapes, tropical pineapple and sticky sweet strawberry jam, floral notes of Rose Turkish Delight combine with boozy sultanas and delicate caramel notes. The finish delivers chewy honeycomb notes, green walnuts, aromatic cumin powder and more orange oils with a lingering note of eucalyptus.

This high quality spiced rum is thought to be one of the best on the market. Delicious on its own but the cocktail possibilities are endless. Notes of Cola Cube lollies, sweet spices, gingerbread, Christmas cake and marmalade.

This unique liqueur is made at the Foursquare distillery in Barbados, combining sugar cane alcohol which is married with lime, almond and cloves. It is the star ingredient in a number of cocktails, most famously in the 'Tiki' style, like the famous Zombie from Donn Beach in the early 1930's.

This fantastic Bajan rum has been matured for 10 years in casks before bottling - in what must be one of the most distinctive bottles we have on the shelf. It is juicy with hints of roasted apple and caramel along with fig and raisin flavours and layers of tropical fruit. Another supreb offering from Richard Seale of Foursquare distillery.

Produced at one of the most acclaimed rum distilleries in the world, this 16 year old hails from Foursquare on the island of Barbados. Wonderfully funky to start, with a meaty and burnt sugar tone, joining barbeqcued bananas and honeysuckle. Root ginger and rye bread-like spicyness add heat, finishing with toasted marshmallow and hints of tangerine.
