How does this rum taste?
The 1731 Fine & Rare Barbados Rum is an independently bottled spirit from Foursquare Distillery, Barbados. Distilled from molasses using both pot and column stills, it is aged 8 years and features an ABV of 46%. This rum presents a balanced profile of vanilla, caramel, coconut, and a touch of youthful alcoholic vigor. Its flavor is dominated by notes of vanilla, honey, and subtle barrel char. While praised for its price-performance ratio and suitable as an entry-level rum, some users perceive it as slightly thin due to its 46% ABV, wishing for a more robust profile. It offers a pleasant, straightforward sipping experience with light roasted and oaky nuances, suitable for both neat sampling and as a mixer.

A nice price-performance ratio. A few percent more would do im good but still nice.
Nothing special, very light and alcoholic. Decent PLV
Würzig trotzdem mild
Quite a sweet aroma, vanilla, some honey.The taste is also sweetish, slightly alcoholic, slightly bitter in the finish.
