Foursquare Epilogue 19 Year Old Exceptional Cask Selection
Foursquare Epilogue Exceptional Cask Selection Mark XXXI is an extraordinary, highly coveted single blended rum that represents the historic final release in the distillery's globally acclaimed Exceptional Cask Selection series. Having secured the prestigious Gold Outstanding award at the International Wine and Spirits Competition, this ultra-premium spirit stands as the absolute pinnacle of artisanal rum production, appealing directly to serious collectors and connoisseurs. Meticulously crafted from a blend of copper double retort pot-still and twin column still rums, this rare liquid has been patiently matured for nineteen years in ex-bourbon American white oak casks at the distillery in Barbados, presented in its purest form without chill filtration, artificial colourings, or added sweeteners. The aromatic profile opens with an exceptionally rich, inviting bouquet of dark chocolate, polished leather, and deep dried fruit, introducing a magnificent mahogany-hued liquid. On the palate, this remarkable rum delivers a big, mouth-filling presence characterised by a wonderfully silky texture, revealing luxurious layers of leathery sweetness, rich tobacco leaf, and ripe orchard fruits. The tasting experience is incredibly deep and beautifully structured, concluding with a complex, lingering, and immensely rewarding finish that perfectly encapsulates nearly two decades of tropical cask maturation. The brand is globally revered as a benchmark of authenticity and innovation, operating from a historic former sugar plantation in the southern parish of Saint Philip, Barbados. Under visionary guidance, the distillery has single-handedly elevated the global status of authentic rum, establishing an uncompromising standard of transparency and quality by which all other aged spirits are measured. As the final chapter in a legendary series, this release celebrates a monumental legacy of blending and distilling excellence, securing the producer's position at the very forefront of th
Hampden Estate Great House Distillery Edition 2023 Rum
Hampden Great House is an exclusive Distiller’s Edition, crafted by Vivian Wisdom and available in limited quantities at the distillery and in Europe. Inspired by the historic colonial-style mansion established in 1753 by the Stirling family, this blend pays homage to Hampden Estate’s rich heritage. A carefully selected blend of two distinct rums, Great House combines 80% OWH 2012—Hampden’s lighter formula—with 20% <>H 2016, an iconic high-ester mark celebrated by rum experts worldwide. The result is an intensely fruity and complex expression, bottled at full strength. On the nose, expect notes of roasted pineapple, rum cake, peppermint, and a hint of smoke. The palate delivers warm and spicy flavours, with white pepper, cream pastry, and a touch of candy and mint. The finish is long and lingering, revealing fresh-cut herbs, exotic ripe fruits, and subtle tobacco leaf undertones. A bold and distinctive rum that captures the essence of Hampden craftsmanship.
