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

How does Neptune Foursquare Gold Rum taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Light, easy vanilla Foursquare, best neat Divisive. A handful enjoy its soft vanilla-and-popcorn ease neat; plenty find it thin, short-finishing and unremarkable. Best on the rocks, not in a mixer.

... 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.
Review by TheFrenchRefill
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.

Standard rum and nothing more
Review by Richard Krupa
Quite a nice rum. As the sixth sample from the rum calendar I liked it the best so far
Review by Rado Vito
That is very bad. It smells like cat and taste like cucumber water.

Strong dry nose Dry to the taste tends towards grappa Wouldn't buy it
Review by X-Savior
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.
Review by ZeroCool
Spicy alcoholic buttered popcorn unique and enjoyable somehow, don't mix too delicate and muted to mix
