Neptune Foursquare Gold Rum 70cl bottle
Bottle
Aged rum · 8 years · 40%

Neptune Foursquare Gold Rum

Best sipped on the rocks, where the buttered-popcorn, vanilla and light oak have room to show — several tasters call it "fruity and vanilla forward super easy" at 40%. Try it in cola and it washes out fast; this one's too delicate to mix. An 8-year Foursquare that opinions split hard on: some find it a pleasant everyday pour, others just "standard rum and nothing more."

The community says
  • Easy, no burn
  • Keep in mind: Short finish
  • Keep in mind: Washes out mixed

... 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 are looking for a gentle, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.

I really like this rum, with a fairly long and sweet finish with caramel, coffee, apricot and a persistent taste of pastries that makes me really like this rum.

8.1/10

On The Rocks: On the nose it is very light and subtle with molasses, fruit, spice and oak with hints of butter and popcorn. Taste is a strong spice followed by some light oak a very clear buttery popcorn taste that continues into a medium finish. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose Pepsi Zero. Taste is smooth but nothing really stands out. It is very washed out mixed. This is a very delicate rum and should be sipped on the rocks.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate

There is a fair amount of oak and spiciness to this rum even when mixed up in cocktails etc. If you enjoy Foursquare then this is a definite purchase. It might seem a little overpriced but the rum is very good. Forget the age and just enjoy this. This is...
