Wood and spice hit first, dry and firm, before dates, cherry and green tropical fruit come through with a little coconut and vanilla underneath. Classic Foursquare from an ex-bourbon cask at a stiff 62% — several tasters say it needs water and time to really open. One reviewer found it too dry for their taste; most others found a "layer of sweetness" they enjoyed.
The community says- Dense wood and spice
- Opens with water
- But: Quite dry

Another very good Foursquare, one of the private cask series. Quite a big nose on it - woody, with fruits and spice. Very nice on the palate, like all of them! Spicy, vanilla, wood, and has a layer of sweetness that I am enjoying. A medium to long finish.

Very dry rum. While tasting, the very first thing that strikes Your taste buds is dryness. Plenty of wood and spices. Then the flavour changes diametrically and notes of dates and exotic fruits come into the game. Very interesting rum. However it is too dry for my preferences. And lastly, in terms of Foursquare standards, it could be better ;)
Review by zabo
In comparison, two bottlings from the Private Cask Selection. Both have the usual high, typical Foursquare profile that you can rely on as always. However, they do not stand out from other PCS or ECS bottlings. Solid bottlings as usual.

Review by Johannes
Solid Foursquare, but not really convincing.
Review by Martin Spooner
Nice round nose. Caramel, vanilla, maybe really a date. Full-bodied taste. The wood is very well recognizable. Smooth, creamy. Really a nice drop. As so often from Foursquare. In the night tasting it confirms its rating.
Review by Pavel Spacek
FSQ profile like from the books. (Just a little bit more scratchy) ... Foursquare is a distillery from Barbados producing amazing rums for everyday sipping. It's a rum appreciated especially by rum lovers who are fed up with sugar and looking for a gentle, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.
Review by machlo
Very dense and compacted initially, but with time and dilution to approximately 50% it opens nicely. Smell and taste was changing gradually for more than 1 hour. In the beginning mostly vanilla, cherries and dark chocolate. Then more and more floral and green tropical fruit notes. Worth trying more than once.
Review by Michal S
Okay Foursquare, nothing special.
