A UNIQUE DISCOVERY

To celebrate the world’s oldest Rum Festival and its founder Ian Burrell, House of Rum has carefully selected this 20 year old single cask rum from the multi award winning Foursquare distillery.

Tropically aged in Barbados for 14 years in American oak casks, before being shipped to Scotland in late 2020 where it was refilled into once used Bourbon casks for a further 6 years of continental ageing. Bottled in September 2026 to commemorate this very special anniversary.

Congratulations to Ian and everyone who has been involved over the last 20 years.

We feel incredibly lucky and privileged to have sourced this rare cask from arguably the world’s most prestigious distillery, Foursquare in Barbados, the birthplace of Rum. (possibly as far back as the 1650’s)


RICH AND COMPELLING

Nose – Vanilla, nutmeg, a touch of clove and dried fruits on the nose.

 

Palate – Butterscotch, cocoa nib and warm spices on the palate. Long, slow, warm finish.



DISTILLERY

Situated in Barbados' south-eastern parish of Saint Philip, the Foursquare Rum Distillery finds its home on the grounds of an old sugar plantation dating back to around 1720. In 1996, the Seale family took the initiative to reopen the distillery, with Richard Seale, the 4th Generation Blender & Distiller of R.L. Seale & Co., currently overseeing the distilling operations and blending. Over the past decade, Foursquare has become one of the world’s most revered and sought after rum producers.
