How do you drink High N' Wicked No. 7 "Foursquare Mark X 2007" Rum Cask Finished Single Grain Irish Whiskey?
High N' Wicked No. 7 "Foursquare Mark X 2007" Rum Cask Finished Single Grain Irish Whiskey shines when sipped neat or with a splash of water to open up its complex flavors, though it also makes an excellent base for spirit-forward cocktails. This whiskey's tropical rum notes make it a delightful choice for warmer evenings, pairing wonderfully with grilled seafood or spicy Caribbean dishes.
Nose: Ripe tropical fruits lead, with notes of pineapple and mango. Vanilla and caramel sweetness follow, complemented by subtle oak spice. A hint of coconut and banana bread adds complexity.
Palate: Rich and full-bodied. Toffee and butterscotch flavors mingle with baked apples and cinnamon. The rum influence brings forward brown sugar and molasses notes. A touch of black pepper and nutmeg provides warmth.
Finish: Long and satisfying. Lingering spices fade to reveal dark chocolate and dried fruit. A pleasant oakiness remains, with a subtle saltiness reminiscent of sea air. The sweetness of demerara sugar gently fades, leaving a dry, slightly tannic sensation.
This unique whiskey begins its journey as a single grain Irish whiskey, aged for 11 years in ex-bourbon casks before undergoing a fascinating 15-month finish in rum casks from the renowned Foursquare Distillery in Barbados. The use of these specific rum casks, which previously held Foursquare's exceptional Mark X 2007 rum, imparts a distinctive tropical fruit and spice character to the whiskey, creating a harmonious blend of Irish whiskey tradition and Caribbean rum influence.
