Foursquare Doorly’s 5 Years 5yr 40%

RX1002 Good Pot & Column Still Rum Under 50€
“Approachable and versatile, with pleasant vanilla notes.”

Doorly’s 5 Years is a Barbados rum distilled at Foursquare from molasses using pot and column stills, then aged for five years. It offers pleasant vanilla and toffee notes with woody and fruity undertones. Often highlighted for its approachable nature and good value, this rum shines as a versatile mixer. While some users appreciate its balance and vanilla notes, others find it somewhat thin or lacking in flavor depth. Doorly’s 5 Years is an excellent choice for those looking for a budget-friendly entry-level rum experience, but may not satisfy those seeking a more complex profile. With its heritage from the Foursquare distillery, it remains a popular everyday choice among rum enthusiasts.

“Overall an very OK everyday rum, especially when taking the price into account. The brand Doorly’s was founded by Martin Doorly & Company, but is nowadays owned and produced by Foursquare and Mr. Richard Seale. The 5yo is a single blended rum, a combination of column and pot still, aged in former bourbon casks whereafter it’s bottled without any dosage or additives at 40%.”
