Ah, well, back to the roots. I've started my journey with Foursquare and come back from time to time, as I still like the distillery's profile. At first I was a little put off, thinking the rum being a bit bland and boring. That's something you sometimes read about Foursquare, and not all expressions are up there with the best. I thought this might belong to those as well, and as the bottle was not expensive when I bought it it I was not mad about this. However, some days later the rum had quite a bit time to breathe, and this brought a new dimension of fruit, thanks to the Sherry, that had been hidden from me before. It is still a mild rum though, easygoing and something you can give an unexperienced guest.
Endlich noch die Gelegenheit gehabt, ein Sample dieses Rums zu bekommen. Finish im Madeirafass ist nicht dominant, maximal mittelmäßig bemerkbar. Runde angenehme Nase mit keinen Überraschungen, auch im Mund eher ausgewogen mit Tendenz würzig. Basierend auf 46% geht dieser Rum als gut genug für mich durch, für mehr reicht es aber nicht.
