How does R.L. Seale's Old Brigand Olde Brigand taste?
Summarized by AI from 9 community reviews.
Honest, easygoing Foursquare daily sipper Reliable, unsweetened Foursquare with classic vanilla-caramel and woody spice. Not very complex, but a fair, easygoing daily sipper at its price.
Rum drinkers tired of sugary rums who want an affordable, honest Barbados sipper with classic vanilla-caramel and light oak for casual drinking or simple cocktails.
Those seeking high complexity, perfectly integrated alcohol, or big cask-strength intensity; also not ideal for fans of very sweet, dessert-style rums.
Style & occasion: Mature & oaky

Review by Lot-NAS
A nice Foursquare without any flaws but also a bit boring as it is not overly complex (Vanilla, caramel, wood spices and a bit of spices on the palate). Tue mouthfeel is a bit thin and a bit higher ABV would have been great. On the other hand the alcohol is already not integrated very well. Looking at the price tag it is probably fair and there are better and worse ones in this range.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Surprisingly good tasting starter.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Foursquare is a distillery from Barbados producing amazing rums for everyday sipping. It's a rum especially appreciated by rum lovers who are fed up with sugar and looking for a smooth, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.
Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
Entry today with this delicious Foursquare. On the nose at first very alcoholic, even slight notes of gasoline. Slight notes of citrus fruits in taste and relatively strong in the finish. But I would have expected a bit more.
Review by Timo Groeger
Today's tasting start with 17 rums. For the first one, I chose one with a lower alcohol content :) Slightly alcoholic and a certain spiciness on the nose. On the palate, the alcohol dominates. Quite okay.
Review by Tom Buteneers
It’s okay. Pretty alcoholic in the flavor profile for only 43%. A bit basic.
Review by Ondrej Czinege
The smell and taste are nothing special, indistinct.
