Rums, Shop News, Tastings,

After a week or two of regaining some composure and organisation after the chaos of Christmas we are delighted to announce our first tasting of the Year… Rum!

We’re super excited to be hosting a fabulous tasting by Peter Holland, Brand Ambassador for Foursquare Distillery of Barbados, true Rum pioneers and legends.

You will have the opportunity to explore their fantastic range of different rums and learn more about the history and production of Rum from a real expert.

Based in Barbados, Foursquare is one of the leading premium Rum producers in the world and have rewritten the book on super premium Rum. They make a wide range of rums, including the Doorly’s label we have always championed. The Distillery also produces its ‘Exceptional Cask Selections’, which represent the unique and rare offerings from Foursquare Rum Distillery. These are one of a kind expressions, available for a limited time and showcasing truly unique approaches to both Rum blending and maturation. Often sold out quickly on release.

You will be greeted with a Rum cocktail, followed by a taster of some truly exceptional Rums. Explore 3 Doorly’s aged Rums: Doorly’s 5 Year Old, XO and 14 Year Old. Plus 3 more samples of Rum from the very special releases from the exceptional cask series: Foursquare 2010 (£124.99 a bottle), Touchstone (£159.99 a bottle) and Mandamus (£104.99 a bottle).

All of that for just £30 a ticket!

With only 25 tickets available we kindly ask you to book in advance as places are limited and some very special discounts will be available on the night.

So if you’re interested in booking a ticket or want any more information drop us an email on mail@thewhalleywineshop.com or book online here.

We hope you can join us for an exceptional night!
