- Description
- Sassafras spent three years in ex-bourbon oak before 11 years in ex-Cognac casks, giving this 2006 Foursquare rum a wine-inflected character at 61% ABV that distinguishes it from straight bourbon-aged cousins. The Cognac maturation introduces dried fruit, subtle tannic grip, and refined sweetness that contrasts the expected molasses and vanilla backbone. A sophisticated rum for drinkers seeking something beyond standard cask profiles.
