Good, but Barbados rums are not really in my wheelhouse.Alcohol not well integrated for its 48 degrees. Hints of chocolate and lychee.

Very nice sipping foursquare. The zinfandel red wine barrel brings nice notes of red fruits, cinnamon and tannins and harmonizes very well. Yummy! Could only have a tad more steam...But probably the best what was foursquare rums so far in zinfandel casks gefinished!I like surprisingly well! It does not always have to be barrel strength ...

The low ABV makes this an easy drink, the profile does remind me a bit of a good spanish style Rum.

not particularly present on the nose, what comes next goes towards vanilla, caramel, cherry wood. On the palate similar notes, especially caramel. The finish is short. One can describe it benevolentlyas round, but ratherlicherweise for me a FS that does not leave a particularly lasting impression. Then rather at a more moderate price the Doorly's 14.

For a titration at 48% like Doorly's 14 years old but with 3 years less aging, this Foursquare Indelible does not offer a clear difference. On the nose as on the palate, we find the same notes of dried fruits, vanilla and spices. The Zinfandel adds notes of wine and prunes that give roundness, but it is not enough to provoke ecstasy. The finish is moderately long and fairly linear, falling short of expectations. While not bad, this rum could have been better with more aging and a higher alcohol content.

The 48% unfortunately seems somewhat tamed - what remains is a primarily spicy-smoky rum with hints of fresh and dried red fruits and the classic melange of oak, vanilla, caramel and light minerality. Not a bad rum, but in my opinion only conditionally convincing and just in view of the large amount of other, very comparable Foursquares simply no more than average.

A nice release and almost up to par with its predecessors. Very fruity with chocolate and vanilla. Brown sugar can also be found in the back. Medium long finish with a light touch of barrel.

Light, shallow, summer. Hazelnut and sweetness. Not a great, complex hammer, but simple sipping rum. Whether this justifies the prices and especially the stress of sourcing.... I am unsure.

Nice nose really reminding the Foursquare markers. In mouth it's not so good, it's bitter and we lose the greediness of the nose. Very short finish. Disappointment on this FS.

For me definitely on the lower end of the ECS / IB Foursquare Universe. It’s not terrible, but just a little unassuming. There are plenty of better FS bottles out there.

Unlike the previous Zinfandel, I hardly taste the finish. Rather spicier.And not as thin as the predecessor. I would prefer the previous Zinfandel with the strength of this one.

Huh? What happened there? Watered down, thin, bitter... a good but not very good rum, and definitely not what I expected from FS otherwise. The first FS that has disappointed me, and there even very much, but maybe I just did not understand him. Let me gladly enlighten what the artist wanted to aim here :)

Very different than the Zinfandel. More modern Foursquare and thus more in line as their recent outputs (it is possible you're a bit bored by that). Less wine/fruity more dry and full of spices. Glue. More burn (more abv 43 vs 48%). I sort of like em both but find the old Zinfandel a bit more interesting because it is different...if only that one was 48%. Cool juice still. The fans will love it.

I’m late trying this one and it just doesn’t fill me with the excitement that made me love Foursquare. The nose is good, approachable, hints of vanilla, roasted hazelnuts and yet not as integrated as many others. On the mouth it’s more fruity and interesting, some lychee and kumquat alongside a dry and almost tannic element. The finish comes quickly and makes itself known, with some dry barrel notes and chocolate alongside sawdust. Shorter in style and finish than many other ECS releases. Reminiscent of the Zinfandel cask and I’ll need to do a side by side, potentially I just don’t love this finish!

Auch hier wieder das typische Foursquare Profil, das ich mag, aber ein paar Prozente hätten ihn vielleicht besser getan. Für mich auch ein sehr guter Daily für zwischendurch.

A sweet creamy nose right off the bat, sliding to notes of baking spice and suggestions of the Zinfandel cask. On the palate, mildly creamy body with natural sweetness; banana, spice, and wine barrel notes. Lingering warm finish with hints of oak and dried fruits.

Everything from Foursquare is synonym of quality and this one is not an exception. On the nose lots of berries and the typical caramel that I always get with Foursquare. On the palate the the caramel is there as also some dark chocolate and cherries

One of the weaker Foursquare rums, relatively poor in aroma and taste. Similar to the classic profile, but subdued.

I understand why some like these, but not my style. Too sweet. Not “funky”. Tasted more like a bourbon than a rum.
