    How does this rum taste?

    • Robust and spicy flavor profile
    • Well-balanced sweetness and spice
    • Affordable for a Foursquare release

    The 2005 Barbados rum from Foursquare Distillery, bottled by Transcontinental Rum Line, presents a robust profile aged for 13 years. Its aromatic notes include woody, toffee, fruit, and vanilla elements. On the palate, it is peppery with hints of wood, sweet cinnamon, and vanilla. This limited release, at 55.2% ABV, offers a surprisingly sweet yet spiced taste with a medium to long finish that features tropical fruits and mild chocolate tones. Praised for its affordability and distinctive profile, it is a commendable option within Foursquare’s offerings. Despite some noting a prominence of column distillate, the rum provides a balanced and engaging Caribbean experience.

    "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."

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."
