product Details

Old Barbados Rum 1985

A very special bottling of rum, discovered by Foursquare master blender, Richard Seale, in the reserves of the House of Alleyne Arthur. R.L. Seale & Co acquired the stock during their take-over of Alleyne, Arthur & Hunte at the Hopefield sugar plantation in 1993.

The casks were vatted by Seale in 1995 at Foursquare when it first opened, with only a few kept aside and later bottled in 2001. It is the latter that this release comprised of, and the bottles were retained until 2015, the 30th anniversary of their distillation.
