Foursquare ECS IV Zinfandel 2004
Most enjoy its easy, fruity vanilla‑oak profile and Zinfandel twist. Critics find it diluted, a bit flat and cask‑dominated. Consensus: solid, accessible Foursquare, not a modern powerhouse.
Those building their palate who want a dry, no-sugar Barbados rum with gentle vanilla, caramel and red-fruit notes, plus wine-cask character, without the hit of high ABV.

How does this rum taste?
Easy Zinfandel-finished Foursquare sipper
If you like approachable but honest Barbados rums (or lighter Foursquare like Indelible), this works as an easy sipper with a clear Zinfandel twist—just don’t expect cask-strength impact.
Fans of punchy cask-strength ECS releases or anyone chasing big complexity and intensity; also not ideal if you dislike noticeable wine-cask influence or light-bodied rums.

This is a super fruity rum and luckily I have a bottle plus a backup one just in case. The nose is mild and fruity with vanilla and some barrel. In the back i pick up some varnish. The palate is complex, well balanced and slightly dry. Again fruity with vanilla and smoky oak. The fisish is long, lightly dry and has raisin and roasted oak. The day after the raisin and roasted oak is even stronger in the glass.
Bouteille à environ 65e c’est assez cher mais je l’apprécie vraiment pas mal, à regoûter plus tard, un peu déçu par le finish qui ne marque pas vraiment, il est assez équilibré et facile à boire on passe un bon moment sans vraiment se prendre la tête ni être exceptionnel
Super beginner sipper! Can easily keep up with indelible. One of the very few extremely successful red wine finishes for me. Noticeable and intense but without dominating the rum. An incredibly cool bargain for €50 at the time. Could of course have a few % more, but it's super uncomplicated and delicious without being tiring or boring... I'd love to have a few bottles in my cellar.
