Description
Foursquare 12 Year Old That Boutique-y Rum Company Cinema Series 50cl, 50.7% is a limited independent bottling of single blended rum from Foursquare Rum Distillery in Barbados. Released as Batch 7, it forms part of That Boutique-y Rum Company’s film-inspired Cinema Series.
The rum combines spirit produced using pot and column stills, bringing together the richness of pot-distilled rum with the lighter structure and balance of column-distilled spirit. It began maturation in an ex-bourbon cask in Barbados, where it remained for five years.
The cask was then transported to the United Kingdom, where the rum completed its 12-year maturation in an ex-Sauternes wine cask. This secondary maturation adds soft sweetness and ripe fruit to the caramel, oak and spice developed during its initial tropical ageing.
Bottled at 50.7% ABV, the result is silky and fruit-forward, with dates, sultanas, creamy caramel, apricot, peach and candied pineapple leading into dry oak and delicate baking spices. Only 451 bottles were released, giving this Cinema Series expression genuine small-batch rarity.
Why Choose Foursquare 12 Year Old That Boutique-y Rum Company Cinema Series 50cl, 50.7%
This release stands out because it combines two very different maturation environments and cask styles. Five years of tropical ex-bourbon maturation in Barbados developed vanilla, caramel and oak, while the remaining maturation in an ex-Sauternes cask in the UK introduced ripe stone fruit, jammy sweetness and wine-cask complexity.
Its pot-and-column composition retains the classic single blended structure associated with Foursquare, while the independent Sauternes finish gives it a distinctive character not normally found in the distillery’s official releases.
For drinkers, it offers an expressive balance of sweet fruit, creamy caramel, oak and spice at a robust 50.7%. For collectors, the Batch 7 identity, Cinema Series artwork and confirmed production of only 451 bottles make it particularly desirable.
Ideal For.
This bottle is ideal for Foursquare enthusiasts interested in unusual independent bottlings and alternative cask maturation.
It is ideal for rum drinkers who enjoy rich stone fruit, dried fruit, creamy caramel, candied pineapple, sweet wine influence and drying oak spice.
It is also ideal for collectors seeking Batch 7 from That Boutique-y Rum Company’s Cinema Series, particularly because only 451 bottles were produced.
The 50.7% strength makes it suitable for slow sipping neat or with a few drops of water to reveal additional fruit, caramel and spice.

Collector’s Note
This Foursquare 12 Year Old has strong collector appeal because it is an independently bottled interpretation of the distillery’s single blended Barbados rum, finished in an ex-Sauternes cask rather than released through Foursquare’s official Exceptional Cask Selection range.
Its Cinema Series identity adds further interest. The science-fiction-inspired label references Independence Day, connecting the bottling with That Boutique-y Rum Company’s wider collection of film-themed whisky and rum releases.
Most importantly, Batch 7 was restricted to only 451 bottles. This small confirmed production makes sealed examples desirable for collectors of Foursquare, That Boutique-y Rum Company and limited independent Caribbean rum bottlings.
