    • Great price-to-quality ratio
    • Distinct Foursquare character
    • Rich caramel and spice aroma

    The Read 12 Jahre Rum originates from Barbados, produced at Foursquare Distillery, and bottled by Rum Piraten. Distilled in 2010 from molasses with both pot and column stills, this limited release of just 235 bottles aged for 12 years. Packaged at cask strength with a 60.2% ABV, it reveals an aroma profile dominated by caramel, chocolate, and subtle spices. The flavor is strong and woody, complemented by spices and roasted vanilla. While celebrated for its value and unique character, some find it a bit unbalanced and harsh at times. Nevertheless, it offers a quintessential Foursquare experience for those who appreciate a bold, high-proof rum.

    "Allein gemessen an Preis/Leistung gibt es hier einen klaren Daumen hoch von mir. Nicht viel anderes hätte ich von einer Foursquare Abfüllung erwartet. Der ein odere andere mag ihn evtl. nicht so hoch einordnen, aber für mich spielt bei meinen Bewertungen auch immer der Preis eine Rolle."

    "Franchement a ce prix là on ne peut pas être déçu, mais c'est vrai que c'est le Foursquare le moins goutu et le plus déséquilibré que j'ai pu gouter. On a caramel/épices/vanille, mais avec une bonne dose d'alcool, et les fruits/tabac/chocolat sont un peu timides."

    "Un Foursquare assez platonique, avec un nez relativement terne et fade sur des notes principalement épicées. L’ensemble manque cruellement de vie. Limite ça irrite un peu les narines avec l’alcool. Par la suite se dégage un rhum peu plus relevé en bouche, mais avec clairement une impression de rhum effacé et superficiel qui ternit son image. Il y a un côté herbeux très étrange, quelques fruits, des épices par-ci par-là, un peu de bois et de caramel mielleux et le tour est joué. Ça ne casse pas trois pattes à un canard. La finale est courte, rapidement effacée et sans grand intérêt honnêtement. L’attaque en bouche et les notes herbeuses atypiques sauvent la mise, mais il s’agit d’un Foursquare continental des plus étranges."
