Distilia Foursquare Mizunara & PX Cask Finish (Silver Seal) 1998

World-class, complex Foursquare where dried fruit sweetness, elegant oak and refined smoke/peat are perfectly integrated. Widely praised as a standout, unforgettable cask-finished Barbados rum.

World-class complexity
Elegant smoke/peat
Perfect ABV balance
Community Top Voice
A bold and unconventional Foursquare, surprising and multi-layered. The base is solid and recognizable, but the dual maturation takes the profile into new territory: noble wood, dried fruit, and a slightly smoky, almost mushroom-like note, blended with an elegant sweetness likely coming from the PX. The smoky touch is present but not dominant—it’s actually the element that surprised me the most for its uniqueness. Spices, tannins, a hint of salinity, and a toasted undertone accompany the sip from start to finish. Probably not for everyone, but for those looking for a bold and well-crafted rum, this is a memorable experience. For me, absolutely top-tier.

    How does Distilia Foursquare Mizunara & PX Cask Finish (Silver Seal) 1998 taste?

    World-class smoky Foursquare experiment
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy both mature Foursquare and peated single malt, this bottle hits that overlap hard—complex, smoky and layered, but still clearly high-end Barbados at its core.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, peat-averse drinkers, and those wanting a clean, classic Foursquare without dominant whisky-finish character or a premium price tag.

    Wow - what a grenade. This extremely complex Foursquare perfectly combines an ingenious base product with the two barrel influences! From nose to palate, in addition to the typical Foursquare aromas, there are also light but very pleasant notes of sherry and whisky. You can also taste incense on the palate and finish, which certainly comes from the Mizunara cask - simply amazing! A slightly burnt undertone accompanies you from nose to finish, but this enhances the taste experience. For me a brilliant rum!

    #5864 15.10.2025 Enjoying a few samples after work while listening to the latest trance tracks. Nose Fresh, light wood, faint smoke, fruits, light pineapple, light raisin, light coconut, faint caramel. Palate Oily, light wood, light smoke, peat, light citrus, fruits, spice, light caramel, faint chocolate. Finish Medium long, wood, faint smoke, peat, light citrus, light pineapple. Empty glass Smoke, peat, light floral, faint caramel. This is in my mind an example on how to kill a probvery good rum. The peat just kills the original flavours.

    Wow, wat nen geiles Teil, auch wenn er mit Foursquare, meiner bescheidenen Meinung nach, nicht mehr allzuviel zu tun hat. Kokosnuss auch hier erkennbar, aber ansonsonsten recht holzig, wobei ich das Holz nicht wirklich zuordnen kann.
