    Creamy bourbon‑style Fiji powerhouse

    If you like Foursquare or bourbon‑cask rums, this is a dry, creamy Fiji that leans that way—great if you want cask strength character without heavy funk.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, fruit-forward Fiji lovers, or anyone sensitive to high ABV and pronounced oak and spice.

    The nose is strongly reminiscent of Foursquare. After a while in the glass I also have aromas of bananas. Taste also very balanced but compared to Foursquare edgier with strong barrel influence.The rum makes a real roller coaster ride. In the nose first harmless, on the tongue strong and the finish eternally long!

    A very pleasant relaxed Fiji with wonderful fruity nose! Creamy it spreads on the palate with beautiful spice and woodiness! The longer he breathes the caramel comes more to the fore !A great rum

    Very tasty creamy rum. Similar to The Duchess only a little more complex. Nice and creamy with great barrel influence. I like it very much. The other side of Fiji.

    Odor and flavor notes in the vegetable range. In addition, spices and a strong wood / barrel note. ABV of 58 comes through well.
