Foursquare Rum 2007 Exceptional Cask Selection

Foursquare 2007 dreamy ©SatedOnline title

Foursquare Rum Distillery is one of the world’s most highly respected producers of premium rum. For a limited time only, you can grab a bottle of its 12-year-old Foursquare 2007 Exceptional Cask Selection for a steal at £51.95!

Situated on Barbados and headed by its maverick master distiller and master blender, Richard Seale, Foursquare creates exquisite rums that any spirit lover would enjoy. Its Exceptional Cask Selection is the cornerstone of the brand’s offering. Single-Blended – meaning that they are from one location, and are produced in the distillery’s copper, double retort pot still and column Coffey still – and non-chill filtered, with zero colouring, added sugar or flavouring, this range sings of the island and showcases punchy, complex flavours, artfully balanced with enviable finesse.

Foursquare 2007 is a single vintage expression marrying a blend of pot and column still rums. The liquid is tropically aged in Barbados in 100% ex-Bourbon casks for 12-years, before being bottled at a bold 59% ABV. Full of dry, woody notes, ginger, oak spice, vanilla, raisins, sultanas, banana, toasted nuts and rounded sweetness, Foursquare 2007 is an exceptional slow-sipper that works as a beautiful introduction to this inimitable distillery.

Foursquare Brand Ambassador, Pete Holland adds,

“The Foursquare 2007 Vintage is a fantastic Rum to gift; Perfect for anyone who’s into cask strength spirits. Approachable, and not challenging in a quirky way, but offers a lot to experienced rummies as well. Twelve years of maturation in Barbados, presented at cask strength, non-chill filtered, and definitely no garbage added: what’s not to love?”

Hine Rare VSOP Cognac

Hine VSOP Rare Cognac ©SatedOnline smaller

Hine Cognacs are some of the most highly regarded around the world for their quality, elegance and complexity. The house’s ethos is that is it impossible to make good Cognac without first making fantastic wine, so that’s what they do!

Hine Rare VSOP Cognac is one of the brand’s classic expressions and has 250 years of history to it. The recipe was first introduced by Hine‘s founder, Thomas Hine himself and blends around 20 eaux-de-vie from the growing regions of Grand Champagne (40%) and Petite Champagne (60%), aged between six and 12 years.

The result is a fine Cognac with aromas of honey, white flowers, apricots and peaches in syrup, developing on the palate with juicy fruit, a lick of liquorice and an impressively creamy texture meeting notes of brioche and hazelnut.

SPECIAL OFFER: £54.95 for a Bottle of Hine Rare VSOP Cognac and two branded ice moulds. Buy it here from The Whisky Exchange.

Le Creuset Stoneware Cafetière

Le Creuset Cafeteire

Le Creuset is the brand for those who love their food, boasting an incredible range of colourful, enamel-covered cast iron and stone cookware from pots and pans to mugs and cooking utensils. Unlike a lot of modern products in our throw-away culture that are not made to last, most of Le Creuset’s products come with a life-time warranty (that’s the product’s lifetime, not yours, as these can be handed down, generation to generation and if they become defective, they will be replaced by the company)!

Our favourite new discovery is the Le Creuset Stoneware Cafetière – the perfect gift for a dad who loves his coffee (or loose leaf tea). With a stainless steel mesh and plunger, it can be used for ground coffee or tea and is thermo-resistant from -18 °C to +260°C. Its generous one-litre size means it can serve cup after cup, with plenty to go around.

What’s more, its durable enamelled surface comes in 12 different colours, injecting a pop of colour into a morning routine.

Fresh Fish Sashimi Box

Sashimi

We don’t know about you but we’ve really started craving sushi, as it’s one of those things we haven’t been able to make since lockdown started…until now! Sashimi is the grade given to the freshest possible catch and is generally served raw. Fine Food Specialist’s Sashimi Box includes three fresh fish cuts that are big enough to serve four people.

Contains:
  • Hiramasa, 300g Hiramasa, also known as Kingfish, is a high-quality sashimi grade Yellowtail Kingfish which is farmed under strict, high standards to make it some of the best sashimi grade fish out there. The fish is firm with large flakes, pale pink in colour, with a rich and subtly sweet flavour. In Japan, the fishermen go to great lengths and hand pack the fish to ensure that the delicate flesh doesn’t bruise. The high oil content in the loin of the Hiramasa fish is what gives it its buttery, rich texture and delicately sweet taste
  • Salmon, 180g – Beautiful, delicate salmon in its freshest state is perfect for serving as sashimi or sushi. If you are looking to prepare a fresh, aromatic tartare, don’t feel you need to add too many extra flavours because this salmon can speak for itself
  • Tuna, 200g When they are landed the tuna are inspected and a sample is taken from the fish. The colour determines whether they can be sold as sashimi or not, ensuring that you are getting the best quality in this top classification
  • Tube of Wasabi Paste
  • Hiyashi Wake Seaweed Salad
  • Kamebishi two-year-old Soy Sauce
  • Pickled Sushi Ginger
