Rewe Foursquare Barbados Rum 8yr 40%

RX5205 Good Pot & Column Still Rum <50€
“Sweet, affordable, typical Barbados style rum.”

Barbados Rum by Foursquare, bottled by Rewe, offers a quintessential Barbados experience, distilled from molasses with a pot and column still at 40% ABV. Aged 8 years, it presents prominent aromas of banana, vanilla, and caramel with hints of tropical fruit and nail polish. On the palate, expect a sweet profile with banana, brown sugar, and roasted notes. Despite its affordable price, it surprises with its balanced flavors, drawing comparisons with refined spirits of higher cost, though some find its alcoholic edge less appealing. An ideal entry-level rum for casual drinkers and a solid choice for cocktails, it's noted for its clean, typical Barbados rum profile and value for money, appealing to both novices and budget-conscious consumers.

“Solider Supermarkt Rum von der Eigenmarke. Trotz der geringen ABV ist der Alkohol nicht so gut eingebunden. Wurde sicher auch nachgefärbt und gezuckert. Für den Preis aber vollkommen ok.”

“Vermutlich DIE 'Handelsmarkenbenchmark'. Wer über den stolpert sollte ihn zu Bildungszwecken unbedingt probieren - und der Rest der Pulle lässt sich schön vermixen. Nicht all zu viel los in der Nase. Frucht, Honig, ein Hauch Banane, helles Holz und ein Hauch Nagellack. Etwas süßer als der Plantation Barbados 5er, nach hinten raus aber auch etwas kantiger. Dazwischen Frucht und etwas Funk. Was die Pulle besonders macht ist der Preis. Immernoch 15€, und dafür ein absolutes Must Have. Wer jemandem was zum Schnuppern schenken will oder einen super soliden Mixer ohne Pansche sucht ist hier bestens beraten. Eintüten!”
