Rom de Luxe Collector's Series No.10 Barbados is a remarkable 19-year-old molasses rum produced by the acclaimed Foursquare distillery, a prestigious, independent, and family-owned operation managed by Richard Seale. This exquisite limited edition rum was distilled in an iron still in October 2002 and has been meticulously aged in an American barrel that previously held bourbon. Its maturation journey took place in both tropical and continental climates, before being masterfully bottled in April 2022. Upon opening, the rum greets your senses with a light, woody pepper aroma that seamlessly evolves into a rich, velvety vanilla, accentuated by subtle vegetal and faintly resinous notes. With proper aeration, a fruity profile emerges, featuring the delightful scents of pears, green bananas, and guava, all enveloped in a light bitterness reminiscent of aromatic juice. The fruits develop into a full-bodied, candied harmony, further enriched by bitter almond and a hint of oxidation, culminating in a sweet, pastry-like profile. This rum achieves an expert balance, offering a pleasant freshness and grip while maintaining its accessibility with a velvety touch. The palate is a delightful blend of tasty, fondness-inducing fruits, bolstered by subtle notes of oxidation and pits, creating an exquisite balance of power and aromas. This limited edition rum is an absolute must-try for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
