How does this rum taste?
The balance of powerful aroma, prominent vanilla, and coconut is what reviewers love most about Foursquare Exceptional Cask Selection XVII 2009. Most buyers describe rich flavors of caramel and dark chocolate with warming oak and spice that makes it both a satisfying sipper and a standout mixer. People often enjoy it neat or with a splash of water to mellow the cask strength. It’s a go-to bottle for many who appreciate complex, bold rum without added sweetness, making it well worth having on your shelf, especially at this price for a limited release.

Very good Foursquare (i would say better as the 2007). Spicy and oaky like a classic foursquare with a dominant note of cocoa.

The bottle fell sometime last year. Now I'm tasting a spare sample. Every vintage is hilarious and this one is no exception. On the nose, coconut, bourbon, dried fruit, perhaps praline, and a bit of technicality impress. The taste is quite sweet, but probably because of that, quite drinkable 😀 . On the palate, I'm intrigued by the notes of coconut, cocoa and some earthiness.
A really really good Foursquare and with the big advantage of not being too rare so it’s easier to get hold of. I could still not help myself and bought 4 bottles, just to be able to have it as my daily goto rum, yummy 😋😋😋 - I might have forgot how many bottles I’ve now bought, but it might be closer to 10. Unfortunately this bottle starts to be a bit expensive for a daily driver 😆 - Dayliy goto and still outstanding.
Another wonderful Exceptional Cask that I received a few of yesterday. This one was so god I had a double dip :-) Price to quality is extremely good and I will order more backup bottles. Complex and well balanced and a true foursquare from nose to finish. Having a go at this one again and the fruityness is very nice.
