Foursquare
There are 333 rums from the Foursquare distillery in the RumX database.
Foursquare Rum Distillery is located on a former sugar plantation that dates back to approximately 1720. The distillery was re-opened by the Seale family in 1996, distilling operations and blending are currently directed by Richard Seale, 4th Generation Trader/Distiller of R.L. Seale & Co, who joined the family company in 1993.
Since Foursquare is a family-owned company, they are not part of a global group and create their very own type of Rum. Authenticity is very important to Seale, so transparency is a key factor for his products.
Typically they produce a Rum, that is a blend of Column Still and Pot Still Rum after two days of fermentation. For aging they usually use Ex-Bourbon Casks, typically for the Carribeans. In their Exceptional Cask Selection Series (ECS) they do have many other expressions with several Cask-Types (e.g. Sherry, Zinfandel, Port or Cognac).
Famous brands in various pricing areas produced here are: Foursquare Rum, Doorly’s, The Real McCoy, R.L. Seale, Rum Sixty Six but also many independent bottler select Foursquare Rums for their releases. Most known for their close cooperation with Foursquare is Velier with their famous head Luca Gargano. Seale and Gargano have a very strong bond of friendship and released some world-famous bottlings, especially interesting for collectors but also drinkers, such as the Destino 70th Anniversary (RX635) or the 2006 (RX168).
For beginners their bottlings of Doorly’s, such as the Doorly’s 12 (RX212) or the yearly released cask-strength Vintage Editions such as Foursquare 2009 (RX10082) can be used as a travel into unaldurated, tropically-aged Barbadian rum. Those are widely available and come at a relatively fair pricing.
Seale is an active member on various social media platforms, aswell. He is advocating for unaldurated rum and higher transparency in the whole industry, as well as higher producing standards on the island of Barbados.
