The Foursquare distillery in Barbados was founded by the Seale family in the mid-1990s. The Seales, having bottled rum in Barbados for over five generations, own a string of traditional brands which now feature Foursquare rum as their main component. Barbados 2006 was bottled at cask strength at 61,5%. This 15-year-old rum spent 14 years in the tropics and in the American White Oak & Ex-Bourbon cask. Only 276 bottles of this exciting rum. Whiskyfun.com review: “Aged 14 years in the tropics, so I suppose this would qualify as 'tropical aging'. Colour: amber. Nose: it's very much on caramel and cane syrup, flambéed bananas, roasted peanuts, and, well, ethanol. That's normal for this strength. With water: these herbs, pressed sugarcane, dried pear, coconut, gorse... Mouth (neat): very fresh, strongly on blood oranges, clemencello (limoncello made with clementines), candied citron... With water: damp earth, one olive, liquorice wood. Finish: long, smooth, with more coconut, more on the 'column' side than the 'pot still' side. The joys of single blends... Comments: these magnificent citrus flavours in the mouth make one want to savour this baby without water, but that could become lethal.” Note: 89 points.
