Foursquare Détente 10 Year Old Barbados Single Blended Rum 51%

Foursquare Détente 10 Year Old is an exclusive Barbados rum for those seeking depth, structure and uncompromising quality. This single blended rum from Foursquare combines classic Caribbean craftsmanship with modern precision to deliver an intense and nuanced rum experience that speaks directly to the seasoned enthusiast.

Distilled and matured in Barbados at the renowned Foursquare Rum Distillery, Détente is a textbook example of why Barbados rum is considered among the world’s finest. It’s a 10-year aged rum bottled at a powerful 51% for maximum flavor, body and character in the glass – without the addition of unnecessary additives.

Détente is created as a blend of pot still and column distillate, providing a perfect balance between power and elegance. The pot still adds structure, depth and aromatic complexity, while the column distillate adds finesse and purity. The result is a harmonious and well-balanced Barbados single blended rum that is both intense and refined.

Barrel aging spans a total of 10 years in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-port casks. The ex-bourbon barrels provide classic notes of vanilla, caramel and toasted oak, while the ex-port barrels add darker, vinous nuances with an elegant fruit sweetness. The combination creates a complex and layered rum that evolves beautifully in the glass.

Released in August 2020, Foursquare Détente has become a coveted bottling among collectors and connoisseurs who want authentic premium rum from Barbados with distinct cask character and high alcoholic strength.
