Foursquare Détente (pronounced dee-tont) represents the latest release from Foursquare Distillery, Barbados. The fourteenth bottling (Mark XIV) in the Exceptional Cask Selection, continuing the Rare series that has featured the award-winning, critically acclaimed Premise, Zinfandel Cask, and Port Cask.
This release is a Single Blended Rum, in that it is a blend of Rums distilled in the copper double retort pot still and the continuous twin column still of Foursquare Distillery.
More specifically, Détente is a blend of single and double maturations: Ten year old exbourbon cask Rum, blended with four year old ex-bourbon cask Rum that has been given a second maturation for six years in old ex-port casks.
This careful maturation and blending results in a complexity that will captivate both novice and those who have come to expect excellence from the team at Foursquare Distillery.
Presented at 51% alcohol by volume, without chill-filtration, at its natural colour, and free from sweeteners and other flavourings.
Foursquare Détente offers a captivating drinking experience, complex and evolving, and balanced in its delivery.
