Die Nase ist sehr Bourbon-lastig, klein Wunder - der Rum reifte 5 Jahre im Bourbonfass. Von den weiteren 5 Jahren im Whiskyfass ist nicht viel zu spüren - war offensichtlich kein Islay-Whisky. Am Gaumen sehr ähnlich. Eine gewisse Intensität ist aufgrund der ca. 61% Alkohol da aber leider werden neben Bourbon, Vanille und Röstnoten nicht viele Aromen transportiert. Insgesamt ok aber für Foursquare blass, alkoholisch und noch weniger repräsentativ als No 17 (wahrscheinlich wegen der Lagerung im Whiskyfass, was mir selten zusagt). Praktisch ohne nennenswerten Unterschied zum Barbados No. 17. Noch eine Anmerkung zur Lagerung im Whiskyfass: Was hindert den Abfüller daran bekannt zu geben, in was für einem Fass der Rum die letzten 5 Jahre lagerte? Bitte vollständige Transparenz!

Got this sample for free from RumX. It’s a mix of column and pot still distilled rum that’s aged for 11 years, first for 5 years tropical and then 6 years continental. It has spent 5 years in an ex-bourbon barrel and 5 years in an ex-whisky barrel. Finally it was bottled in 259 bottles at 61,1%. Overall an OK rum, but with too strong alcoholic taste, that’s not near Foursquare’s own bottlings.

Sehr alkoholisch, bisschen Holz, leichte Vanille.

Nach dem Plenipotenzario aus dem Adventskalender dachte ich mir noch: Ha, Foursquare kann ja doch gut schmecken. Der hier bestärkt mich wieder in meinen alten Vorurteilen und bietet wieder das gewohnt langweilige Profil mit Kokos, Bourbon, Vanille und Alkohol. Da ist mir ein (guter) Bourbon lieber. Für FS-Liebhaber sicher interessant aber für mich eher nichtssagend. Schneidet für mich minimal besser ab als der parallel verkostete No 17
