Exuding refined Barbadian sophistication, the "The Paulsen Collection" from the renowned Foursquare Distillery shines through with its tropical allure. Distilled in 1998 and matured for a decade, this extraordinary rum captivates with intoxicating aromas of toffee, dark chocolate, refreshing citrus, coconut, and inviting vanilla. Experience the smooth, harmonious blend of rich caramel, sturdy oak, and creamy vanilla that seamlessly gives way to a delicious dark chocolate undertone, with the coconut adding an unexpected twist of the tropics on the palate. Produced solely from molasses using a Coffey Column Still, this unique rum captures a quintessential Foursquare profile that is delightfully accessible and fruit-forward. The elegant reduction to 40% ABV enhances its inviting character, making it an ideal choice for a laid-back, indulgent evening with a touch of elegance.
