     The high age suits the rum well and brings thanks to the wood influence still a little more vanilla melt from the bourbon barrels. Also overall with recognizable proximity to American whiskies with fresh oak, present spice of pepper, cinnamon and cloves, concise toffee, dried fruit and subtle minerality. Very good Foursquare representative.

     Sehr einladende und relativ intensive Nase mit einer angenehmen Süße, jede Menge Gewürze, getr. Früchte, Kokosnuss, ger.Nüsse, Schokolade und Karamell. Am Gaumen dann auch sehr intensiv und rund mit einer angenehmen Süße. Für mich eine der besten FS-Abfüllungen! Im Blind Tasting heute überraschend weit hinten gelandet. Tagesform!?

     2 Edit: Currently one of my favorite mixers as CubaLibre Edit: once again taken out of the cupboard. It simply remains one of the best ECS. Unfortunately, it was too expensive at the time. Very successful bottling. Proud age. Very fine notes in the taste

     Similar to the 2008 and therefore just as phenomenal. Very complex and balanced. Of course all the typical FS aromas are there, whether the additional years in the bourbon cask have produced an even better rum compared to the 2008 is hard to say, but what's the point. Very good overall, especially the delicious pineapple/mint note on the nose.
