Foursquare Epilogue marks the end of a cycle that began in 2008: the Exceptional Cask Selection series reaches its thirty-first and final chapter. The choice of name is not insignificant: Epilogue concludes a collection that built its reputation on numbered bottlings, selected one by one by Richard Seale , master distiller and master blender of the distillery. At 19 years old , this vintage also becomes the oldest rum ever bottled by Foursquare .
Epilogue's composition follows a method unique to Foursquare: combining two distillates produced at the same site, one from a pot still, the other from a continuous distillation column. This technical marriage gives the single blended rum a base that is both dense and precise.
The two distillates shared the same aging process: 19 years spent entirely in Barbados, in casks that previously contained bourbon.
At bottling, as is customary for this “ECS” series, no adjustments are made: no sugar, no coloring, no chill filtration. The rum is offered at its cask strength of 57% ABV.
