FOURSQUARE INDELIBLE 11 YEARS OLD 48%

In the world of fine spirits, the art of rum-making takes a distinguished place, with Foursquare distillery leading the way with its remarkable expressions. One such exquisite offering from this acclaimed distillery is the Foursquare Indelible 11 Years Old. This rum not only carries the legacy of its Barbadian roots but also showcases the mastery involved in crafting premium rums. Aged for 11 years under the warm, tropical climate of Barbados, this spirit is a testament to the depth and complexity that can be achieved through careful aging and expert blending.

Foursquare distillery, located on the southern slopes of Barbados, is renowned for its unwavering commitment to traditional rum-making methods coupled with innovative cask finishes. The Indelible 11 Years Old is no exception. This rum is the result of a meticulous process using both pot and column stills, which combines the robust flavors typical of pot still rum with the smoother, cleaner notes achieved through column distillation. This dual distillation method is part of what gives Foursquare rums their distinctive character.

The aging process in Barbados plays a crucial role due to the island’s tropical climate. The intense heat and humidity accelerate the interaction between the rum and the cask, intensifying the aging process and allowing the rum to mature more quickly than it would in cooler climates. For the Indelible, this aging occurs in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-Zinfandel casks. This choice of casks infuses the rum with intricate layers of flavor, ranging from the vanilla and caramel notes derived from the bourbon casks to the rich, fruity tones imparted by the wine-soaked Zinfandel wood.

The bottle of Foursquare Indelible is presented at 48% ABV, a strength that ensures the robust flavors and aromatic profile are perfectly preserved and delivered with each sip. This strength strikes an ideal balance, offering enough intensity for a full-bodied taste while maintaining a smoothness that makes it delightful to drink both neat and in high-end cocktails.

The rum, distilled from molasses, carries the essence of its sugarcane base, providing a sweet and lush foundation that complements the complexity introduced through its diverse cask aging. Every aspect of Foursquare Indelible, from its aromatic nose to its long, satisfying finish, speaks to the quality and care that goes into its production.

The official bottling status of this rum assures consumers of the authenticity and high standards maintained by Foursquare. As with all their offerings, Foursquare controls every step of the production process, from the fermentation of the base molasses to the final blending and bottling.
