The Real McCoy is a Single Blended Rum produced in Barbados by Foursquare Distillery from high quality blackstrap molasses that ferments from 48 to 56 hours. The distillation takes place partly in the Coffey column and partly in the green engineering copper Pot Still double retort. The rums produced by Richard Seale age in ex-bourbon American oak barrels.
The Real McCoy is a tribute to Billy McCoy, the hero of the Rum Runners who during the Prohibition era managed to evade American controls by importing rum from the Caribbean that he sold while remaining in international waters.
His rums were quickly recognized also because they were not diluted with water for this they earned the name of the real McCoy.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
