Tasting Notes:
- Nose: The aroma has a pleasant roasted meat quality that couples nicely with brown sugar. Smoke from the barrels comes to light as does baking spices.
- Palate: The rum is rich and soft initially with a sweet note, but that becomes bitter with hints of whiskey on the finish.
Curiosity:
- Rum Sixty Six was quite literally a rum-reserve set aside exclusively for the Seale family, owners of the Foursquare Distillery for the past five generations.
- This rum is distilled, aged, and bottled at the distillery in Barbados from a combination of rums distilled in pot and column-stills.
- The rum is aged in used American whiskey barrels.
