    "12 year old Foursquare finished in Cognac and Pineau barrels. An exciting experiment! Very round and smooth. Ideal product for beginners who like slightly spicy yet sweet rums. However, there is a slight penalty for the relatively thin finish."

    "#4109 A light easily drinkable Foursquare. Fruity with vanilla and a sweet touch to the palate. Well balanced in the profile but would have loved a higher ABV. The empty glass has nice sweet berries and a touch of cognac. Price to quality is very good."
