Foursquare Sassafras

About this bottle

This is the seventh release from the partnership of Luca Gargano (Velier) and Richard Seale (Foursquare). A blend of two rums distilled in completely different ways: a copper double retort still on one side and a traditional twin column Coffey still on the other. The blend first matured in ex-bourbon barrels for three years, after which it was moved to ex-cognac barrels to mature for an additional 11 years at the Foursquare distillery. Bottled at cask strength and a worthy representative of the methods and principles of the Foursquare distillery. Tasting Notes: Nose: Powerful. Nuts, citrus and toasty notes. Taste: Broad and generous. Coconut, caramel with spices and elegant oak tones. Finish: Complex and distinct. Wood, pepper and hints of roasted coffee beans.
