The Real McCoy 5 Years

Stipkavejsie, interesting, longer, distinctly nuts and almonds, probably the longest stiplavost but we'll see, the second degu...aroma of almond butter and fine spirity, oak, in the taste simpler, subtle sweetness, but also still at 5 years old quite pungent, but I'm raising to 7.8m from 7.6

A solid rum, good for cocktails ok for sipping. The nose gives off caramel, vanilla, and oak notes with a little banana. The rum is light on the tongue with caramel and vanilla as the primary taste. The finish is slightly better than the palate with vanilla, dried fruit, and barrel spices.

01.05.2019 Nice tasting with friends including my slow cooked pot roast. Colour Medium dark in colour. Nose Light, light wood, faint roasted, dried fruit, caramel, light floral, spice. Palate Light, sweet, light wood, dried fruit, light floral, faint pineapple, spice, light chocolate, light caramel. Finish Short to medium, light wood, sweet, light dried fruit, faint citrus, light chocolate, faint caramel. Extra note. Surprisingly good at the age and price tag.

A good rum for mixing to provide a pretty classic baking spices and sweets note. If I’m reaching something in this style to sip, I’m going all the way to Foursquare ECA. This lacks to complexity of dark tobacco notes and highlights, like orange zest, that elevate Foursquare’s premium product. Still very nice and great value.

super round number! nice entry Barbados rum!

This review maybe influenced by the fact that the Vegas selection of rum is appalling ... Even in the mirage at a place called the rhumabar it's pretty standard selection .. however back to the rum .. decent no's e on it of a dry rum that has hints of smokiness but not too overpowering ..

Getrunken im Antons Tafel, Sep 2019

Woody/barrel, chocolate and a tiny bit of vanilla. The alcohol comes across as pungent. I would never purchase a bottle.

The nose is quite roasted. Hazelnuts and oak are most prominent. The palate is quite oaky. Hints of raw licorice and cocoa. On the dry side. The finish keeps the oak and some vanilla. It is quite short though. Overall, I am a little disappointed but this is the 40% abv version. I'd say the Doorly's 5 year old might be a better buy.

... Foursquare je destilerka z Barbadosu produkujici uzasne rumy ke kazdodennimu popijeni. Je to rum, ktery oceni zejmena rumari, kteri maji plne zuby cukru a hledaji jemny, nasladly rum plny kokosu, vanilky, cokolady a karamelu. Proste prijemne a nijak agresivni chute.

Bajan starter. Not bad, but lacks depth... meanwhile it feels like a step down compared to many other goodies

It’s ok. Nothing special but a very bog standard Badian 5 year. Harmless but not very refined and a fairly generic. Would not bother buying again.

Too light for my taste

Not disturbing but rather generic taste. Nothing significant.

Mild aber echt dünn
