Description
The traditional family business R.L. Seale has been producing first-class Barbados rum since 1820 and is one of the oldest trading houses on the island. Richard Seale, the current master distiller, is considered one of the most innovative rum experts in the Caribbean. Known for his exceptional creations, he combines traditional craftsmanship with modern know-how to produce perfectly balanced and intensely flavored rums.
Exceptional Cask Series from the renowned Foursquare Distillery in Barbados represents the rarest and highest quality rums, selected with the utmost care by Master Distiller Richard Seale. This series is characterized by limited bottlings that are only released when they meet Richard Seale’s exceptionally high standards. Each edition is a unique blend that combines innovative approaches to the art of blending and barrel ageing.
The 25th edition of the Exceptional Cask Selection series, entitled Equipoise, is produced by the renowned Foursquare distillery in Barbados, using a combination of pot and column stills for distillation. The rum, which is based on molasses, undergoes a carefully coordinated maturation process: one part is initially aged for ten years in ex-bourbon barrels and then matures for a further four years in Calvados barrels, while the other part spends the entire maturation period of 14 years exclusively in bourbon barrels.
The name “Equipoise” (English for “balance”) reflects the harmonious balance achieved by both the complex maturation process and the finely tuned aroma of the rum. This method gives Equipoise its unique character and emphasizes the craftsmanship of the Foursquare distillery, which is valued worldwide for its precise production of high-quality rums.
