    Reviewers love its rounded 46% profile and inviting nose of coconut, vanilla and caramel. Gentle oak and pepper lead to dried fruits and dark chocolate, with alcohol well integrated. The Madeira influence is subtle, yet the style is smooth and easygoing—often praised as a welcoming gateway to Foursquare. Limited to 3,000 bottles and popular on RumX with 55 reviews, it’s a confident pick for neat enjoyment.

    This Limited Edition of The Real McCoy, aged for 12 Years, are a blend of Pot and Column still rum. It’s released at ABV 46% and a mix of rum aged in ex-bourbon casks (90%) and ex-Madeira casks (10%).

    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.
