Les Frères de la Côte Foursquare Vieux Rhum - Brut de Fût 2011
Most tasters land in the same place: a textbook Foursquare that's very good but doesn't reinvent anything. Caramel, vanilla, bourbon and a distinct grape note run through it, with cocoa and wood on a long finish. Several call it "incredibly drinkable" for 65.1% — the alcohol is beautifully integrated. A couple find it a touch cloying.

How does Les Frères de la Côte Foursquare Vieux Rhum - Brut de Fût 2011 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Classic Foursquare, well-integrated at cask strength Loved as a classic, well-made Foursquare — caramel, grape and cocoa with the heat tucked away. The honest note: it's reliable rather than surprising, and can read a little sweet.

One of the better Foursquares thanks to the finish.

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 Henry Davies
Classic foursquare from the start with a great nose of caramel, bourbon and some grape. It’s a solid independent bottling and as good as some of the ECS offerings. Incredibly drinkable and well integrated given the 65.1% ABV. Mouth is greedy with some vanilla, warm cooking spices and grape punch. Finish is cocoa and wood with coffee and some chocolate. All in all a top notch foursquare, not worthy of another bottle but enjoyed it
Review by Adrien B
Alcohol perfectly integrated. Fine and crazy indulgence. Molasses, licorice, cocoa, warm spice. Very very good. Easily on par or even above most Velier. Would be rated better in a black bottle! V2 elegant woody, more aromatic and the
Review by Filip Šikula
In aroma and taste classic barbados, I think even blindly could hit foursquare. In aroma, caramel, vanilla and grapes. In taste it starts out as a totally classic foursquare, but after a few moments the grapes come in. Long finish.
Review by Roman Lelek
The handwriting of Foursquare is readable from the first sip. In the nose I smell leather, wood and some fruit - like apricots or plums. Considering it has over 60%, it's well integrated into the overall taste... wood, sweetness and a strong finish thanks to the %.
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
Excellent Foursquare!
Review by Djehey
Very round and intense profile. No big surprise compared to what's written on the bottle: the Foursquare markers and the grape. Quite little complexity, rather simple to enjoy with alcohol very well integrated despite its 65.1%. Good length on the palate. However, I find it a bit cloying.
Review by zazar azer
An ECS-level Foursquare. It's very good and very greedy, but it doesn't do much more than classic Foursquare.
Review by Martin Švojgr
Sweeter, slightly less integrated alcohol. But it's not a bad FS

Seriously, all this foursquare are more or less the same, and this is an tremendous achievement. Rarely a fallout to below the 70 points. Bourbon cask leaves vanilla and spices, some coconut, and overall a bit boring but reliable profile, even with these ib's
