Rum Shark Foursquare 2010
Don't let the classic Foursquare label fool you — at 63.8% this one bites. Under the familiar chocolate, vanilla and dried-fruit profile there's a wall of tannin and heat that a few tasters found sharp and not fully knit. Give it plenty of air and it settles into leather, raisin and dark cocoa. An 11-year single cask that rewards patience.
The community says- Dark chocolate notes
- Dried fruit depth
- Keep in mind: High ABV heat

From community reviews · summarized with AI
Cask-strength Foursquare: chocolatey but hot and tannic Well-liked classic Foursquare with leather, dried fruit and dark chocolate. Most enjoy it, but several find the ABV loud and the finish heavy on tannins.

#4787 20.07.2024 Sampling a bit at home. Nose Balanced, light wood, light roasted, dark chocolate, raisin, spice. Palate Warm, balanced, naturally sweet, fruits, dried fruit, light pineapple, light wood, faint smoke, dark chocolate. Finish Medium to long, wood, light roasted, raisin, light pineapple, spice, naturally sweet. The empty glass has faint cherry, faint caramel and some vanilla. Needs to rest for a good while to settle properly or the ABV will overpower the flavours.

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 Jakob
Great Foursquare. Beautiful fruit notes complement the classic Foursquare profile, alcohol still present but without becoming intrusive.
Review by Johannes
Alcohol not well integrated. Quite good in taste!
Review by Matej
I really do like Forsquare rums cause almost in every one of them I feel chocolate (which is my favorite flavor in rums), but this one was quite different, at least for me (wave of fruit and subsequent sharpness). I think there is a few good bottles of Forsquare, cheaper than this one. Again I am really glad that I had opportunity to had a sample but maybe I am not the right person to fully appreciate it (to be fair I am just a rookie in rum world).
Review by Michael Janek
64.3% Smells gentle, honey, nuts Taste brutal, strong, rolls the tongue all over, tears it apart and throws it away
Review by Richard Krupa
Great classic FQ vibe (9/10), but the taste is kind of bland, however third place from Rum Shark.
