How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy it as a well-rounded, dry Foursquare with coconut, vanilla and light berries. Critics find it a bit thin, short and not very innovative. Overall seen as solid and fairly priced.
If you enjoy ECS-style Foursquare but want something easier and drier for weekday sipping, this fits well—just don’t expect fireworks or huge depth.
Those chasing big complexity or cask-strength intensity, and drinkers looking for very sweet, dessert-style rums or a standout, experimental Foursquare release.

Not the best of the series but not the worst either. I'd say that the price at release matched the quality. A well rounded, oily and sweet rum with fruit and light wood with sprinkles of caramel and molasses.
Kleine Reihenverkostung des RX2192, des RX7623 und des RX7158. Insgesamt landet der 7158 auf dem ersten Platz. Alle haben ein sehr ähnliches Profil. Alle sehr gefällig. Mir gelingt es aber nicht, sieht man vom ABV ab und der unterschiedlichen Intenistät echte Ausreisser in der Qualität zu benennen…
Solider Foursquare mit einer angenehmen gut gewählten Trinkstärke, eher trocken gehalten. Ungewöhnlich intensive Note nach leicht säuerlichen Himbeeren, Vanille und Eichenholz. Wenig Komplexität und das Mundgefühl ist etwas "dünn"und der Abgang eher kurz. Hätte ich mir mehr erhofft.
Seltsamer Foursquare … dem Alkoholgehalt entsprechend etwas dünn am Gaumen, aber noch OK. Was mir weniger passt ist die Fruchtsäure sowie eine Pfeffer-Note, die das Foursquare-Gefühl bei mir irgendwie nicht aufkommen lässt. Oder ich bin dich erkältet und mein Gaumen trügt mich 😂
