How do you drink Foursquare Exceptional Cask Selection Mark XXVIII Convovation?
Foursquare Exceptional Cask Selection Mark XXVIII Convocation is best savored neat or with a single large ice cube to fully appreciate its complex flavors, though it can also shine in spirit-forward cocktails that showcase its robust character. This luxurious rum is perfect for sipping on cool autumn evenings, paired with rich desserts like dark chocolate truffles or crème brûlée, or enjoyed alongside a fine cigar for a truly indulgent experience.
Nose: Rich aromas of caramelized vanilla, toasted coconut, and ripe berries greet the senses. Notes of aged tobacco, bergamot, and subtle nuttiness emerge, complemented by hints of oxidized Madeira wine.
Palate: Full-bodied and complex. Flavors of caramelized grapefruit peel, roasted macadamia nuts, and blackberry cobbler dominate. Underlying notes of pineapple and salted caramel add depth. The mouthfeel is rich and chewy, reminiscent of toffee.
Finish: Long and elegant. Warm spices, dark chocolate, and dried fruits linger. The high proof (62% ABV) provides a pleasant warmth without overwhelming heat. Subtle oak tannins and a touch of Madeira wine influence create a sophisticated, lasting impression.
Foursquare Exceptional Cask Selection Mark XXVIII "Convocation" is a blend of two distinct 14-year-old single blended molasses rums, one aged entirely in ex-bourbon barrels and the other in ex-Madeira casks. What's fascinating about this rum is that it's a true representation of Barbadian craftsmanship, with all aging, blending, and bottling occurring on-site at Foursquare Rum Distillery, resulting in a complex spirit that showcases the best of both barrel types without any added color, sugar, or flavors.
