Purple Cane 9 yr Rum – Pineau des Charentes finished Foursquare Barbados
$80.00
A veritable jam session of purple grapes and sugar cane!
Purple Cane is the union of two independent bottlers, Rolling Fork and Raising Glasses. Building on the iconic rich, spicy and bold Foursquare distillate, Purple Cane adds a sophisticated layer of fruit and velvet with a finish in a French oak cask of Pineau des Charentes (an apertif wine created by adding freshly pressed grape juice to cognac eau de vie). Adding its luscious delicate freshness to the muscular potency of rum from Barbados elevates this unforgettable expression.

Burning Cane (15 yr Barbados Foursquare)
$49.99We jumped all over this cask instantly – currently there isn’t a hotter distillery in rum than Foursquare and its hype as “The Pappy Van Winkle of rum” is fully deserved: Powerful and multi-dimensional yet very approachable, even for rum newbies. Some single cask Foursquares trade for four figures … but our Burning Cane gets you cask strength world class juice at an impressive 15 years of aging for less than $50. At the time of this bottle’s release we compared this to Foursqaure’s vaunted Exceptional Cask Series – it would have ranked #1 for highest ABV and #3 for longest aging.
Cask strength Foursquare of this age can be a seductive gateway to fine rum, with fragrant summer fruit notes to grab cognac aficionados & the caramel intensity and oaky backbone to pull in whiskey fans. This cask’s luscious kettle corn opening evolves to a prolonged tree bark and gingerbread cookie finish.
