How does this rum taste?
The Captain's Choice Edition 55 is a rare gem from the renowned Foursquare distillery in Barbados, selected by Tres Hombres. Aged for over 17 years, this limited batch features just 170 bottles and boasts a robust 63% ABV. Tasting notes reveal layers of vanilla, roasted and dried fruits, and an intoxicating nose that evolves from bourbon to a deep woody, dark chocolate palate. Esteemed by connoisseurs, it's noted for its potent profile that mellows with time, offering an exquisite blend of sweetness, oak, and a lingering finish. With its unique sherry finish, this rum has impressed Foursquare fans with its depth and quality, though some find the intensity overwhelming.

Blind Tasting 01.02.2024, 4th rum Nose: Wow, this is a powerhouse that can barely walk on power! But it is so superficially brute that it almost comes across as cheap, the Rummelboxer type. But what does such a coarse type have to do with fine notes of sherry and glue? Obviously a lot here! Palate: Tiieef and dark, but I don't taste any malt or leather, so it's probably not an Enmore on steroids, but what then, a Foursquare? Toni, who is sitting next to me, guesses the Foursquare from Schotman's (RX13210). Yes, it clicks for me too, that must be it! Solution: Surprise! Not Schotman's, but even better: Tres Hombres - with an Oloroso finish! I really like it. 2nd place out of 8 blind-tasted rums that evening.
Second tasting: The nose is 1a Foursquare reference. The typical markers are very clear and distinct. The alcohol is also perfectly integrated. On the palate, I find a seamless continuation of the impressions from the nose plus gentle roasted aromas. In the finish, the sweetness disappears almost completely and makes way for harmonious roasted and barrel notes I'm not usually easily impressed by Foursquare, but this has at least the quality of the ECS bottlings. A very good, sweet representative from the Foursquare Distillery and a wonderful easy sipper. Tasted at the 12th GRF Very good Foursquare! Unfortunately only available as a 1-liter bottle and therefore quite expensive in absolute terms, but attractive in relation to the quantity and above all the quality on offer. A must for Foursquare fans!
