Barbados Rum delivers on its affordability promise whilst offering a mildly sweet, fruity experience with hints of honey and banana. While a reasonable mixer, it's not without flaws—slight medical bitterness and kinks on the backend. Nonetheless, it's a surprising supermarket find!

„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.“

„Für den Preis überragend! Ungewohnt einen Foursquare in (wahrscheinlich) gezuckert zu trinken. Überrascht aber positiv“

„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!“

„A surprisingly good rum for a supermarket rum, but a surprisingly unremarkable rum for an 8yo Foursquare.“
