The Bedford Park Foursquare 2009 Stars is a single ex-bourbon cask of pot and column still rum, distilled in 2009, moved to Europe in 2018 to finish its maturation, and bottled at a natural 60.8% ABV with no chill filtration and nothing added.

Foursquare itself needs little introduction: the Doorly's and R.L. Seale house in St. Philip, Barbados, run by Richard Seale, is famous for pot-and-column blends aged entirely in the tropics before bottlers take them north.
