    How does this rum taste?

    Reviewers consistently appreciate this Foursquare bottling for its classic, well-balanced Barbados profile, with coconut, roasted notes, and a hint of chocolate coming through in both aroma and taste. Many note the gentle integration of alcohol despite the cask strength, making it enjoyable neat. It’s considered a strong choice for those seeking a straightforward, coconut-laced sipper without excessive sweetness. A limited release that appeals to fans of authentic molasses-based rums.

    Sour-sweet tropical fruit, maybe not even really fruit, but tropical greens in vinegar. Solvent, spicy herbs. Something else I can't get out...everything revolves around fruit vinegar and varnish. The flavor is more sweet, herbs, alcohol, vinegar sourness. The aftertaste is spicy herbs infused with alcohol. Not bad, but somehow one-dimensional.

    Liquid Leuven 2025 A bit one dimensional but still a very nice Foursquare.

    Spontaner Vergleich zwischen dem RX15990 und dem RX50. Es sind zwar verschiedene Jahrgänge, aber wie immer bei Foursquare sind beide Abfüllungen auf einem hohen Niveau mit den typischen Geschmacksmarkern. Für mich hat der RX50 aber die Nase vorne.

    I like it very much! Alcohol well integrated, typical Foursquare profile.
