How does this rum taste?
Relaxed, value Foursquare-style sipper
If you enjoy easygoing Barbados rums like Doorly’s 12, this will feel familiar: same Foursquare DNA, a bit more ABV, still super relaxed and wallet-friendly.
Funk hunters or cask-strength fans seeking high intensity and complexity; also not ideal if you want huge aroma or very dry, challenging profiles.

Vanilla, vanilla, tobacco, leather, wood, cinnamon, spices and a hint of ripe fruit.In the nose even a little uhu bastelkleber.For the Plv a really cool rum, very mild, good alkoholeinbindung and still a lot of flavor and especially tasty, even if you do not find any extraordinary flavors in it :3
Auto-translatedRelaxed sipper with classic Foursquare profile.
Auto-translatedLooking at the price tag you get a lot for your money in my mind. Nice well rounded, sweet and fruity profile with spices and caramel. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some chocolate and light nutty flavours.
The Real Mccoy bottles are my favourite. 12y 40% and 12y 46% are very similar. Delicate flavour, vanilla at the beginning, then teochu sussi
