100% foursquare pot a nice experience!Unlike blends fatter and oilier in the mouth but without losing the distinctive aromas that sets it apart!
He is indeed very very horny! Super gentle but full body! Classic FS profile, in perfection. The best FS for me, even in direct comparison with 2008, Shibboleth and Velier 2006
Now this is a proper Foursquare, the price is still up there, but nonetheless a good rum. The nose is fruity and woody with spices, leather, chocolate and light herbal notes. The palate is complex and well balanced with wood, fruit, spices, licorice, caramel and light vegetal notes. The finish is long with wood, caramel, vanilla and orange.
Sehr guter Foursquare. 2005 scheint mein FS Jahrgang zu sein. Bringt sowohl Tiefe und Komplexität mit, ist aber zugänglich und mach extrem Spass zu trinken.
