    • Good price-performance ratio
    • Vanilla and honey flavors
    • Mild and approachable

    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.

    "This rum died because it was watered down far too much. In my opinion the ABV should have been far higher. Fruity and sweet with light wood and roasted notes. The empty glass is nice and has a smoky and light leather note."

    "A good rum with a good price-performance ratio. Unsweetened. It smells well of spices and alcohol. Taste: fruity, round. Pleasant finish. I don't think it's been watered down too much. But of course not quite as strong, so suitable for beginners. Update: I still like it, unfortunately it runs out super quickly."
