Foursquare Equipoise

Description

This is Foursquare's first release of a rum partially matured in ex-Calvados casks. A ten year ex-bourbon cask rum, which has spent further four years in ex-Calvados cask is then further blended with a fourteen year old ex-bourbon cask rum.

Equipoise is a Single Blended Rum, as it is a blend of heavy and light marques distilled in the copper double retort pot-still, and the continuous twin column stills of Foursquare Distillery. The rum is then presented at 61% ABV with no added colouring or chill-filtration.
