Foursquare 16 Year Magisterium Mark XXVI Barbados Rum

Full and opulent, Magisterium leads with coffee, black sesame paste, and brown butter on the nose. The palate expands this into a decadent spread of banoffee pie, pineapple upside-down cake, butterscotch, and burnt caramels. A few drops of water (more than welcome on this 58% rum) open the palate appreciably, bringing more brown butter, as well as toffee, toasted hazelnuts, cinnamon toast, mulled orange and a touch of rancio. – D&M TASTING NOTES (DI, April, 2026)
