    "A rum tasted at the GRF in 2024. A lively nose with pastry notes, young wood and bitter caramel. A soft entry on the palate, then marked by alcohol, fruit and caramel. The finish is short, with lots of caramel. A pleasantly lively and vigorous rum, a little too marked by caramel for my taste."

    "Blind verkostet mit einigen anderen Foursquare Abfüllungen. In Summe für mich der rundeste Foursquare mit dem klassischen Profil und einer ausgeprägten Kokosnuss Note. Am Gaumen eine leicht florale Note, die ich besonders bei den 2005er Abfüllungen wahrnehme. Alkohol ist sehr gut eingebunden."

    "Ich verstehe überhaupt nicht, warum dieser Rum hier so wenig Beachtung findet. Für mich ist das ein wunderbar ausgewogener Foursquare, sehr samtig mit viel Kokos unglaublich rund. Tolle Abfüllung von Schotman! Wenn nur der sehr ambitionierte Preis nicht wäre..."

    "Well, that was good. No alcohol, wonderfully smooth taste of coconut, caramel, milk chocolate vanilla. I didn't expect it at all and I'm really pleasantly surprised how interestingly smooth the Schotmans managed to fill the cask!t"
