Foursquare Distillery Foursquare Mandamus Exceptional Cask Selection ECS XXIX 16Y Old (10 Years Ex-Bourbon, 6 Years Ex-Port) 57% 70cl

Foursquare Mandamus is the 29th release in the highly acclaimed Exceptional Cask Selection (ECS) series from Foursquare Distillery in Barbados. This limited edition perfectly reflects the distillery’s philosophy of transparency, traditional production methods, and uncompromising quality.

Mandamus is a 16-year-old rum, initially matured for 10 years in ex-bourbon casks, followed by an additional 6 years in ex-port casks. This dual maturation adds both structure and rich fruit complexity. Bottled at a robust 57% ABV, it is released without chill filtration, without added sugar, and without colouring.

Tasting Notes

Colour: Deep mahogany with ruby reflections.

Nose: Rich and expressive, with aromas of dark red fruits, raisins, molasses, toasted oak, vanilla, and a subtle port wine sweetness.

Palate: Full-bodied and powerful, revealing layers of dried fruits, caramel, cocoa, spice, and oak, beautifully integrated with the influence of the port casks.

Finish: Long, warm, and complex, with lingering notes of fruit, baking spices, and elegant wood tannins.

Despite its high strength, Mandamus remains remarkably balanced and refined, offering both intensity and depth.

Crafted for the Rum Connoisseur

Foursquare Mandamus ECS XXIX is best enjoyed:

  • Neat, to fully appreciate its layered complexity

  • With a few drops of water, to open up additional aromas and soften the tannic structure

This release is particularly appealing to fans of cask strength rum and lovers of port cask finishes.
