Product details
Bottled at a hefty British navy proof of 57% ABV, this dark rum is the perfect marriage between unaged Jamaican pot-still rum from the famous Hampden Estate—Jamaica’s only distillery fully dedicated to heavy pot-still rums—and rum from Barbados, aged between 2 and 3 years, distilled at Foursquare distillery. The barrels of Barbados Rum age on tropical shores, exposed to the sea breeze, warm climate, and high evaporation rate, leading to a more complex and balanced spirit. The final touch is a small blend of fresh column-still rums from both Trinidad and Guyana for ultimate complexity, rounded-off with 3-5 years-old Trinidadian Rum.
Complex, rich and potent with hints of vanilla, dark fruit, molasses, and spice. Fantastic on its own but shines bright in cocktails like the Mai Tai, Rum Punches, Fog Cutter, and Zombie.

Honestly, I expected more. The flavor profile was flat, IMO. I found it be to be an "ok" rum but nothing like the rums of the tropics.
Layered complex flavor. Excellent as the sole rum in a Mai Tai. I hope this remains accessible to me so I can keep it in stock at all times.
After Patrick succinctly described the fine blends this rums holds, he then said, "It shouldn't taste this good but it does." And, it certainly does. It is simply delicious with a provocatively sweet strength. Buy it. Thanks Patrick.
