    "Really good vintage representative. Much influence bom ex-bourbon cask, which suits Foursquare well and results in abundant vanilla, chocolate, pepper, allspice and caramel notes. Very good representative of the archetypal Foursquare profile."

    "In the smell, the typical Foursquare forward tones of glue and solvent and banana. In the taste then a lot of flavor like a grilled banana. Suseer toffee and roasted aromas with banana nests. The 59 percent is a perfect match. Unfortunately, the prices for such a bottling are rising. But you should still try it"

    "The 2007 similar but a little missing him then but to come to the 2007er ran. Nevertheless, a nice sipping rum that has a nice spicy woody with subtle sweetness in the finish."
