    How does this rum taste?

    • Warm vanilla and caramel layers
    • Rounded, classic Foursquare profile
    • Well-integrated woody spice

    Equipoise greets you with vivid vanilla and caramel, layered beautifully with woody spice and coconut on both nose and palate. RumX reviews highlight a classic Foursquare balance: assertive yet rounded spice, gentle oak, and softly sweet undertones. While it stays true to the house style without wild surprises, this 14-year-old delivers pleasing complexity and drinkability at substantial strength. Worth a sip for anyone who enjoys rich, wood-forward Barbados rums.

    "A nice new offering from Foursquare. This one is quite nice on the nose: chocolate, wood, cola, deep fruit notes, syrup, vanilla, spice - this one has lots of deep sweet smells. The palate is heavy on spice, barrel and prominent raisin, with some roasted and brown sugar notes. Nice body to this one too. I feel like in the recent past I would have maybe scored this a little higher but I think I find it harder to feel wowed by Foursquare these days. That said, this also does not disappoint in any way - they rarely ever do."

    "Im kurzen Vergleichstest der Foursquare Equipoise und der Foursquare Empery. Wie es nicht anders zu erwarten war, sind beide auf dem üblich hohen Niveau. Insgesamt gesehen, brechen aber beide auch nicht nach oben aus. Mittlerweile, obwohl ich Foursquare sehr schätze, wäre mein Fazit, kennste einen, kennste alle."
