R. L. Seale´s Rum

R.L. Seale's carries the name of the man behind Barbados's most uncompromising rum philosophy. Richard Seale, known from Foursquare, puts his own name on this bottle, a direct guarantee that no sugar or colouring has ever come near the liquid.

  • Doorly's 14 Year Fine Old Barbados rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280012

    Named after Martin Doorly, who began bottling rum in Barbados in the 1920s, and today carried on by the island's oldest distillery under one of the Caribbean's most respected families.

    Expert Description

    Doorly's 14 Year Fine Old Barbados is a Barbados Rum, a blend of pot and column distilled rum aged 14 years, mainly in ex-bourbon casks with a smaller portion in ex-madeira casks, bottled at 48%.

    The brand is owned and produced by R.L. Seale & Company at Foursquare Distillery, one of Barbados' oldest and most respected rum houses, run by fourth-generation distiller Richard Seale. Doorly's 14 Year is a further development of the house's XO expression, with longer ageing and a strength of 48%, where the madeira casks add an extra layer of complexity to the classic Barbados profile.

    As with all of Foursquare's releases, there's no added sugar or colouring, just rum, time and cask.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Caramel, dried figs and a light winey sweetness from the madeira casks, with a hint of toasted nut.

    Palate

    Rich and complex with brown sugar, spiced oak and a depth of dark dried fruit.

    Finish

    Long and warm, with lingering spice and a light madeira sweetness that fades gently away.

  • R.L. Seale's Foursquare 10 Year Export Proof Barbados Rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865449-9509

    Red label, higher strength. When Foursquare raised R.L. Seale's classic 10 Year Old from 43% to 46%, an already respected Barbados rum grew even more intense without losing its nutty balance.

    Expert Description

    R.L. Seale's Foursquare 10 Year Export Proof is a Barbados Rum aged at least ten years in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 46%.

    The rum is produced at Foursquare Distillery in Barbados under the leadership of Richard Seale, one of the modern rum industry's most respected voices, known for his insistence on full transparency around ingredients and maturation methods. R.L. Seale's Finest Barbados Rum is a blend of pot still and column distilled rums, both of which have rested at least ten years in previously used bourbon casks before being blended into the finished Export Proof edition.

    The higher strength of 46%, an upgrade from the previous 43% edition, gives the rum more body and intensity, without compromising the classic Foursquare style's elegant balance between pot still weight and column distillate purity.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Nutty with fig and a hint of floral spice.

    Palate

    Butternut squash and light vanilla meet dried fruit in a round, full-bodied palate.

    Finish

    Long, with roasted almonds, cinnamon and toffee.

About R.L. Seale's

R.L. Seale's is a Barbadian rum brand named after Richard Seale, the man behind the acclaimed Foursquare distillery and one of the rum industry's most outspoken advocates for transparency without additives. The series functions as a more accessible companion to Foursquare's exclusive Exceptional Cask Selection, but builds on the same philosophy: no added sugar, colouring or other additives, just pure rum matured in oak casks under Barbados's tropical climate. Collectors find it interesting to follow Seale's work outside the main brand, while newcomers get the same high quality standard at a more affordable price.

History & Background

The Seale family has run sugar and rum production on Barbados since 1926 and has over the generations grown into one of the island's most respected rum families. Richard Seale, today known as one of the rum industry's most influential voices, chose to release a separate brand under his own name, R.L. Seale's, alongside the more famous Foursquare, as a way to offer his uncompromising approach to a wider circle of rum lövers. The brand reflects the same insistence on full transparency that was later formalised in Barbados's official "Barbados Rum" appellation from 2020, a protection Seale himself helped push through. Richard Seale, who runs Foursquare, is considered one of the most respected masters in modern rum production.

Production & Style

The rum is distilled on both pot still and column still using the Foursquare house's classic, authentic methods.

Signature Style

Complex, Spiced, Round
The taste offers a round, complex character with spiced undertones.
