Velier FOURSQUARE Sassafras 70 cl. 61%

Foursquare Sassafras is a premium and powerful rum created by Foursquare Distillery in Barbados in collaboration with the Italian bottler Velier. As a single blended rum, it combines pot still and column still distillates from the same distillery. It was tropically aged for a total of 14 years – three years in ex-bourbon casks followed by eleven years in ex-cognac casks – and bottled at 61% ABV with no additives or chill filtration.

The nose is rich and layered, offering notes of vanilla, dried fruit, coconut, and bold oak spice, enhanced by elegant cognac undertones. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied, oily texture with caramel, dark chocolate, toasted coconut, and a dry, spicy oak finish that lingers long.

Foursquare Distillery, located in Barbados and led by Richard Seale, is one of the most respected producers in the rum world. Renowned for its transparency, craftsmanship, and traditional techniques, Foursquare produces rum without any additives or sweetening, always tropically aged. Their collaboration with Velier has resulted in a number of legendary releases, and Sassafras is a shining example of this high standard.
