KILL DEVIL - Foursquare 2007 - Barbados - 14 years - Single Cask - 63.10%
Edition Spirits is a renowned independent rum bottling company, founded by brothers Scott and Andrew Laing in Glasgow. Sons of Stewart Laing, director of Hunter Laing and former founder of Douglas Laing, they joined their father during the split of Douglas Laing in 2013 to integrate Hunter Laing. Edition Spirits has become a strategic operational branch of Hunter Laing, incorporating the famous First Editions series into its rich portfolio. Particularly specialized in Blended and Single Malt whiskies, they have also acquired over the years exclusive stocks of aged rums from iconic regions such as French Guiana, Jamaica, and Barbados.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, Caribbean inhabitants nicknamed their local distillates "Kill Devil," a historical term reflecting the rich cultural heritage of island rums. While many of these superstitions have disappeared today, the Caribbean region remains undeniably an inexhaustible source of exceptional rums, recognized for their aromatic diversity and unique quality. The Kill Devil series celebrates this tradition by highlighting the best rums from the Caribbean and beyond. All Single Casks are rigorously selected and then shipped to Scotland, where they are carefully hand-bottled using traditional artisanal methods, ensuring high authenticity and quality.
This exceptional rum was distilled in April 2007 at the prestigious Foursquare distillery located in Barbados. It benefited from an extended aging of 14 years in carefully chosen casks before being carefully bottled in Scotland. Only 267 bottles of this exceptional Single Cask were produced, making this edition a highly sought-after rarity among rum enthusiasts and collectors.
