Foursquare The Real McCoy Prohibition Tradition
Highly praised for its balanced 50% ABV, classic Foursquare vanilla‑oak profile and gentle sweetness. A reliable, characterful sipper that many consider the best Real McCoy so far.
Fans of drier Barbados rums who enjoy vanilla, coconut and bourbon-oak notes, want more punch than 40% bottlings, and appreciate honest, unsweetened Foursquare-style profiles.

The higher ABV improves the overall profile and I like it lot. Sweet and fruity with nice spicy palate and a light smoky note. Nice warm palate and a wonderful nose in the empty glass.
Delicious rum from the house of Foursquare with a round and pleasant nose. In the mouth, a clearly perceptible sweetness mixes elegantly with a smoky tobacco notes, which is why this rum is not overly dry and spicy. Also on the finish remains something smoky, even if caramel and co dominate.
Forbidden good coconut. The longer the rum is in the glass, the more fades the glue note that is there at the beginning.
Alcohol very mild, very round, dark chocolate
