How does this rum taste?
Reviewers love the balanced complexity of Foursquare's Exceptional Cask Selection XI Sagacity, especially its smooth mix of wood, vanilla, and a touch of coconut. The classic Foursquare profile shines with added depth from the Madeira cask, which many say gives it a distinguished finish. It's ideal for relaxed sipping at gatherings, appreciated for being approachable yet full of character. Worth picking up if you enjoy a nuanced, not overly sweet rum people happily share—and rebuy.

It’s number eleven in the Foursquare EC Series. It consists of a blend from both Pot and Coffey stills distillate aged for twelve years in by ex-Bourbon and ex-Madeira casks before blended at ABV 48%. Overall an intense, complex, pleasant and any other superlatives that comes to your mind.
Classic FS profile meets Madeira. Wine. Baking spices. Typical glue and solvents. Round. Good! But is FS not getting a bit boring? The marge of differences/variety between different FS bottles is quite small...
Typical Madeira notes in the finish which I find worlds better than the Real McCoy Limited Edition Madeira cask.
Varnished wood, black tea and mango on the nose. But the whole is rather weak and a little spicier than the Premise. The palate is a little acqueous, and the aromas are not marked. A rum that doesn't say much. The finish is surprisingly long and persistent, despite the aromatic weakness. Not as good as the Premise, except for the finish. The balance and drinkability are there, however.
