"Gets me a subjective sympathy point in addition, because the high-percentage Foursquare profile at the time was definitely something new, which has caused enthusiasm. But also regardless of that, an excellent representative of the typical Foursquare profile."
"Ein geiler Rum! Komplex, sehr gut trinkbar. PLV Top! Edit 03/2022: Mittlerweile schon Sammlerpreise. Der Körper ist schlanker als alle bisher verkosteten FSs. Sehr elegant. Neben dem Plenipotenziario mein Lieblings-FS."
"Un classique, efficace sans être trop complexe "
"This Foursquare stands out clearly from its successors. The nose bears an uncanny resemblance to an old Enmore, with a slightly old-fashioned spirit, marked but dry fruit, leather, tobacco, spices, varnished wood, cocoa and coffee, all rounded out with caramel and marzipan. There's a sort of aromatic grassiness that recalls some Versailles. It's a real change from the more classic Foursquare nose. The attack is smooth, balanced with spice, wood, tobacco and toast on one side, and fruit and caramel notes on the other, all wrapped in a layer of bourbon that amplifies the greediness. There's also a certain freshness reminiscent of aromatic herbs, as on Enmore distilled in Pot Still. The alcohol is well integrated. The finish is warm, spicy and toasty. There are hints of dried fruit, chocolate, hazelnut, gourmet wood, caramel and toffee, as well as notes of fresh tobacco. The finish is subtle and elegant. A rather whimsical Foursquare that's off the beaten track, both olfactory and palate-wise, which is very appreciable for a distillery often characterized as one-dimensional."
