To Foursquare
"Ein sehr kraftvoller und würziger Foursquare aus Barbados. In der Nase kommt eine Frische, klebstoffähnliche und würzige Note zum Vorschein. Am Gaumen wird man schnell von einer unerwarteten, vollen Süße überrascht, welche dann in Würzigkeit und einer angenehmen Wärme abklingt. Die Gumminote aus der Nase verschwindet fast vollständig. Die tropische Fruchtigkeit unterstreicht diese Aromen gut. Der Abgang ist lang, würzig und Anklänge von Papaya halten sich bis zum Schluss. Ein äußerst preiswerter Rum."
"08.12.2018 Had a wonderful meet up with old and new friends at this wonderful hotel. Notes. Medium dark colour. Nose: fresh, light wood, fruity, pineapple, light coconut, caramel. Palate: round, wood, spice, medium dry, fruity, caramel, banana. Finish: medium long, medium dry, wood, light caramel, chocolate. The guy bringing this bottle didn't want to tell us where he got it from."
"Guter Foursquare, der vielleicht etwas eindimensional und nach zu viel Column schmeckt."
"Verglichen mit den anderen Foursquare ECS Abfüllungen, kann er meines Erachtens nicht mit halten. Denoch finde ich ihn sehr gut, für einen Foursquare, da für ihn keine utopischen Preise aufgerufen werden."
