Per Person
Set on the grounds of an old sugar plantation dating back to around 1720, Foursquare Rum Distillery is one of Barbados’ true treasures. Revived by the Seale family in 1996, it is now led by Richard Seale, a fourth-generation distiller and blender carrying on the R.L. Seale & Co. legacy.
Exceptional Cask Selections represent the unique and rare offerings of Foursquare Rum Distillery that Richard has hand-selected – his personal projects only released when he feels they are of exceptional quality. These are one-of-a-kind expressions, available only for a limited time, and showcasing truly unique approaches to both Rum blending and maturation.
Arrive at the former sugar plantation site in St. Philip.
Entry is free, and parking is available on site. Explore the Distillery
