Owners keep coming back to how much rum you get here for a Foursquare single cask. Coconut leads hard on the nose — the "coco ultra dominante" a few tasters flag — alongside vanilla, cream toffee and a little wood glue. It drinks soft at first, then a spice explosion hits: black pepper, nutmeg, ginger. At 61.2% the heat shows, but the finish runs long and fruity into raisin and date.
The community says- Dominant coconut
- Big spice punch
- But: Hot at 61%

How does Les Rhums du Sud Foursquare Barbados Pure Single Rum taste?
Summarized by AI from 20 community reviews.
Coconut-forward cask-strength Foursquare Most owners land on a real Bajan treat — coconut-and-vanilla gourmand with surprising complexity for the proof. The only recurring gripe is a finish that ends a touch short.

Guillaume de Roany and “Les Rhums du Sud” selected a barrel, vintage 2008, from the Barbadian Foursquare distillery. Whereafter they sailed it to Europe and bottled 412 bottles at ABV 61,2%. Overall a delicious rum that can’t disappoint anyone liking Bajan rums.

Solid Foursquare without much fanfare. This can be seen positively, because quality is of course present - but viewed differently, it is also very interchangeable.

Review by Timo Groeger
Wow, a really great Foursquare here. I wouldn't have thought so. Anyway, a nice oaky nose with beautiful vanilla notes. On the palate, nuts and dark chocolate come in. A very tasty rum :-)
Review by MJ97
On the nose, drier, more solvent/wood glue with more alcohol. On the palate, the wood glue comes through strongly and it's an explosion of spices (pepper / nutmeg / ), stinging on the tongue and oral cavity. A firework display of spices and aromas. Medium-long finish, the palate becomes pasty (not very pleasant), with wood and spices coming through. We're less sure about the gourmand aspect.
Review by John Coffey
A superb nose... Pity the explosion of spices on the palate... And a little too much alcohol... Great value for money though... Bravo to this bottler
Review by ElReyTristan
Nose right in the Foursquare style, we find an ultra dominant coconut with aromas of vanilla, caramel and dessert caramel cream. It's super indulgent and you don't at all feel like you're tackling a rum over 60%. Soft on first sip then it hits hard, we find the coconut notes from the nose. Drier and less fresh. A bit more spicy, black pepper and chili. Mouth finish on dried fruits, raisins and dates. It's seriously complex. Much softer on the nose than on the palate, finish a bit short, a pity. But very beautiful complexity.
Review by Pavel Peknica
Very strong, but the taste is worth it. Max. half a glass.
Review by Benoit CHATEL
Very nice success!! Gourmand rum as we like them. Finish a bit short.
