I tried the regular bottles and these are the same level and the score might fluctuate a few points depending on the day. A very nice Foursquare with nice fruit, wood and spices on god balance and great ABV integration. The empty glass is also wonderful.

Coconut becomes nail polish and super nice woodiness out back.

One of the oldest Foursquare to date. Still on the same thread but with a lot of taste, a perfectly integrated alcohol and a never ending finish. I love it!

8.9/10

Tasted as a 2cl sample. Very great nose, quite sweet but not sugared. Fruity, nail polish, nuts and marzipan. Like a delicious dessert. Quite an unusual, varied flavor for Foursquare for me so far, with quite a bit of oak. Fruit and solvent dominate at first, then spicy notes take over, followed by barrel. Then in the finish the nice fruit note from the beginning comes back. Great play of flavors, very great rum, top integrated alcohol.Edit: not HD but Foursquare of course.

8.7/10

Nez rond-pâtissier : goût de vanille, miel-cassonade et banane flambée. L’alcool est présent mais invite à la dégustation. L’attaque en bouche est franche et impressionnante. La mélasse est la, de la vanille, de la muscade et du boisé. La finale est agréable et longue mais moins surprenante que la 1ère bouche. Je m’attendais à un tirage plus bling bling que qualitatif, mais dans l’ensemble je trouve la série très cohérente et réussie. Malheureusement, un tirage trop limité pour être accessible au commun des mortels comme moi ! Heureusement que nous avions gagné cette série de sample lors d’une tombola afin de pouvoir découvrir cette lineup.
