Leave all your preconceptions of youthful white Rums behind and enjoy.
Normally, at this point we write about the producer of a given Spirit. But today we have a different challenge. The Rum we are discussing today comes form two different producers who decided to create something together cooperatively. The two distilleries in question are two Caribbean Rum-making powerhouses: Foursquare Rum Distillery in Barbados and Hampden Estate Rums in Jamaica. And just to add a little more mystery, the Rum has two different names, both of which are in ancient Latin.
Probitas White Blended Rum is a premium blend. Foursquare contributes a pair of lovely Rums produced on their Coffey column still (one new and the other aged two years) and Hampden delivers a lovely pot-still Rum that is also un-aged. The biggest component is the un-aged Foursquare Rum. On the label they say, “impeccably distilled and blended Rum for all aspiring cocktail craftsmen.” And this is indeed true — it’s a bartender’s dream in flavor, pairings, and in 47% ABV. But leave any preconceptions of white Rum mixers behind. This youthful Rum is a solid, delicious sipper on its own as well.
Smartass corner:
In the EU, this Rum is called “Veritas” — meaning “truth” in latin. But that name was taken in the US, so it’s called Probitas. Probitas means “goodness,” also in ancient Latin.

The aromas are vibrant with cream, grass, and sugarcane.

Finish
The finish is light with fruit and spices.

The Art of Drinking Scotch in the Summer
From snowstorms to freezing rain to sleet, Scotch is the quintessential whisky of winter. So when it’s hazy, hot and humid, should you drink something else?
