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 hĂ€tte ich von einer Foursquare AbfĂŒllung erwartet. Der ein odere andere mag ihn evtl. nicht so hoch einordnen, aber fĂŒr mich spielt bei meinen Bewertungen auch immer der Preis eine Rolle."
"Sehr gutes PLV."
"Franchement a ce prix lĂ on ne peut pas ĂȘtre déçu, mais c'est vrai que c'est le Foursquare le moins goutu et le plus dĂ©sĂ©quilibrĂ© que j'ai pu gouter. On a caramel/Ă©pices/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 Ă©picĂ©es. Lâensemble manque cruellement de vie. Limite ça irrite un peu les narines avec lâalcool. Par la suite se dĂ©gage un rhum peu plus relevĂ© en bouche, mais avec clairement une impression de rhum effacĂ© et superficiel qui ternit son image. Il y a un cĂŽtĂ© herbeux trĂšs Ă©trange, quelques fruits, des Ă©pices par-ci par-lĂ , un peu de bois et de caramel mielleux et le tour est jouĂ©. Ăa ne casse pas trois pattes Ă un canard. La finale est courte, rapidement effacĂ©e et sans grand intĂ©rĂȘt honnĂȘtement. Lâattaque en bouche et les notes herbeuses atypiques sauvent la mise, mais il sâagit dâun Foursquare continental des plus Ă©tranges."
