Pour le nez, a re-tester sans rhume. Pour le goût, c'est une belle réussite. L'alcool est bien présent mais les fruits doux et la coco prennent de plus en plus de place, ainsi que les épices. Cette sensation s'accentue vraiment à l'aération. Pas vraiment de longueur, c'est dommage. Mais c'est plutôt agréable. Édit : alcool un poil trop présent pour un début de line-up.

C’est bien fait. C’est rond. Un peu sec sur la longueur. On sent plus (et c’est normal car 90%) le WI que le Fs a 10%.

Après avoir dégusté et acclamé le Old Brothers LPCH, apprécié mais sans plus le MGB, passons au FWI pour les initiales de Foursquare (10%) West Indies (90%), assemblage de rhums de Barbades de 3 et 5 ans, a 47,1% et embouteillé à 636 exemplaires. On a un nez et une bouche gourmande comme sait si bien le faire les Barbades. Avec des notes plus persistantes de noix de coco mais surtout boisées. Le résultat est plaisant mais la finale est sèche ce qui me laisse sur ma fin. Conclusion de ce trio Old Brothers: travail d’assemblage et de réduction de bonne qualité mais j’ai préféré le LPCH.

Il vaut mieux attendre qu’il s’ouvre avant de s’y aventurer et profiter de tout son nez et arômes.
