"Today the Velier Triple Entente in a glass. Here the Foursquare: This bottling is a disappointment. The nose is still the best (floral/fruity) and if the palate had continued to develop like this...! But the opposite was the case. It's quite one-dimensional with a sweetish plantiness and that's it. There are even fewer aromas on the finish. Too bad"
"The whole Entente set had to face DomM and me, both neat and in a daiquiri. The Foursquare is very interesting, but takes some getting used to. I had a certain cauliflower, cooked kohlrabi association here. In my opinion, the Hampden is the most balanced and the typical Hampden notes are also easy to recognize unaged. The alcohol is also perfectly integrated here. The Neisson is as it should be and what you expect from it, not bad but unfortunately nothing outstanding either. The ranking has remained the same both neat and in a daiquiri. 1st Hampden 2nd Foursquare 3rd Neisson"
"Very intense on the nose with (overripe) vegetables and sole sweetness. Very unexpected and very much not what I expected from an unaged pot still FS. On the palate there is much more sweetness and a nice creamy texture. Overripe vegetables are lingering in the background. Here I can see how this would evolve into the classic FS profile."
"8:On the nose, the first impression we get are fermented, overripe tropical fruits with esters like pineapple and banana. The molasses is a bit vegetal, there are yeast residual and glue..Some almond notes nicely complement and round the rum. 7,8:On the palate, the attack is vegetal and fruity with fermented tropical fruits like banana, pineapple, papaya. There is very pleasant tasting feeling as the molasses is syrupy, nuty, earthy and herbal. After resting the rum, our tasting buds are attacked with mineral and spicy sugarcane and pastry. 7,8:The finish is long with fermented tropical fruits, flowery notes, a bit bitter molasses, nuty, there is confectionery, the sugarcane is mineral and spicy..."
