Foursquare Equidem - Exceptional Cask Selection Mark XXVII
Mark XXVII in the Exceptional Cask Selection series from Foursquare is the first to feature ex-Black Muscat cask maturation, and the results are glorious.
It’s a blend of two rums: one aged five years in bourbon casks, then another nine in those heady, floral Black Muscat barrels; and the other a fourteen-year-old bourbon-matured number. Both were distilled from molasses using pot and column stills, then married at Foursquare and bottled at 61% ABV without additives, filtration, or colouring. It’s proper rum, done properly.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Treacle tart dripping with syrup, sticky sultanas, overripe stone fruits – think nectarines and Victoria plums – backed by zesty orange peel, almondy marzipan, a flicker of ginger, and the earthiness of dried turmeric.
Palate
Light caramel rolls into jammy red fruits and peach compote. There’s that Muscat touch again – more plums, more juicy decadence.
Finish
Long and warming with spice for days. Think black tea, peppercorns, and crystallised ginger.
