Covenant is a single blend rum in that it is a blend of heavy and light marques of rums. Distilled in the copper double retort potstill and the continuous twin column stills of Foursquare Distillery.

Entirely matured, blended, and bottled in Barbados, and presented at 58% alcohol by volume, without chill-filtration, at its natural colour, and free from sweeteners and other flavourings.

Matured exclusively in ex-bourbon cask American white oak, this long-aged bottling was formed from a blend of rums distilled in 2004 and 2005. An initial spell of ten years in cask led to it being vatted, and then after a considered reduction in alcoholic strength, it was re-casked for a further eight years before being bottled.
