Foursquare Détente 10 Year Old Single Blended Rum

For the 14th release in the "Exceptional Cask Series", Foursquare revisits an old favorite: Port. Earlier in this now cultish and closely followed series of releases, in 2014 to be precise, many were casually introduced to the distillery by way of their lovely Port Cask Finish release. It was fruity, velvety, soft, sweet (but of course not sweetened), and bottled at an easygoing 40% abv. It wasn't going to offend anyone, and indeed it made many friends. Now here we are 6 years later, and what a sign of how the average rum drinker has changed that this new release, Détente, is bottled at 51% (aside from the cask strength releases, the proofs have been steadily creeping up), and eagerly anticipated by a community that not only wants to drink it but to knows every detail about it.
