Foursquare‑style coconut dessert rum
If you enjoy Foursquare or other bourbon‑driven Barbados rums, this is a no‑brainer: same coconut‑vanilla dessert profile, just with a Saint Lucia twist and great drinkability at cask strength.
Drinkers seeking funky, “dirty” Saint Lucia pot still character or very high complexity and long finishes; anyone sensitive to higher ABV heat.

Even as I poured it into the glass.... thought uhhh ?? Foursquare, Bourbon? Barbados? Blindly I would never have assigned it to Chairmans. Nose very chocolaty, woody, vanilla and caramel...gaaaaaanz in the background and after at least 20min in the glass some dried fruits come through. On the palate the same game but with the addition of a great spiciness of roasted nuts and vanilla from the wood. Very heavy and palatable.
4 Chairmans in direct comparison: 1st Chairmans 1802 Very fruity, vanilla, increasingly more spice, balanced, sweeter and sweeter on the palate over time. Lots of bourbon influence. 8.5 pts. 2nd Chairmans Rum&Co Comparatively more fruit, especially cherry. Vanilla and sweet finish. 8.5 pts. 3rd Chairmans 2008, Rhumattitude Completely different, lots of bourbon influence and even more coconut! Resembles a Foursquare or Belize rum. 81 pts. 4th Chairmans Excellencerhum See astringent, lots of herbs, wood, fruit in the finish. 87 pts.
I would have blindly placed it in Barbados. It lacks a lot of the aromas that otherwise make up the St. Lucia profile. Is that a bad thing? Yes and no. In terms of quality and craftsmanship, this is a mature distillate at a top level and undoubtedly pleasant to drink. On the other hand, in terms of complexity, it is rather manageable and correspondingly interchangeable. Just enough to classify it as a very good rum.
A warm nose with overripe pineapple and banana, glue and alcohol that could be a little better integrated. Sweetness (burnt caramel) and freshness also in the background. The aromas, after the development of the alcohol, develop and become more powerful, with toasty, vanilla wood and tropical fruits that are less ripe than on the nose. The palate, with its power, minty freshness and balance, is far more beautiful than expected. Then the aromas diminish, leaving warm, bitter caramel and surprising freshness on the palate. A very fine rum, quite complex, fresh and deep.
