Best given a good rest in the glass before you drink it — at 64.4% the alcohol bites hard and, according to more than one taster, never quite settles. Coconut, vanilla and pineapple on the nose, then spice, caramel and a bit of oak on a thin, hot palate. The finish is long and warm on buttered caramel and roasted coconut. A cask-strength Foursquare that divides its own fans.
The community says- Coconut-vanilla nose
- Long warm finish
- But: Alcohol bites hot

How does Excellence Rhum Foursquare 2007 taste?
Summarized by AI from 15 community reviews.
Hot cask-strength Foursquare, coconut and spice Splits the Foursquare crowd: some find a proper gourmand nose and structured body, others call it flat with the alcohol poking through. A touch of water helps.

17.05.2019 Nice get together at my place with nice spread of rums. Notes Light in colour. Nose Fresh, round, fruity, light wood, faint smoke, pineapple, faint coffee. Palate Intense, round, fresh, fruity, spice, light wood, light chocolate. Finish Long and warm, fruity, light wood, spice, pineapple, light citrus, faint chocolate. Extra note. Needs to rest for a good while or the alcohol will bite.

A rather dull Foursquare, lacking life and depth. The nose is shy on aromas, with a hint of coconut, spices and caramel, but nothing too extravagant. The alcohol is even a little too present, slightly irritating the nostrils. The attack on the palate is thin and rather alcoholic. The rum is strong on spices, caramel, pastries, fruit and a little wood, but the whole lacks finesse and depth. The alcohol unbalances the palate, making the experience all the more unpleasant. The finish is long, sweet and warm on butterscotch and toasted coconut, with some coffee and spice notes. It's not an awful rum, but a slight reduction would have done it good, as would a few more years of aging. We can expect more from the bottler's selection.
Review by Simon Leroux
A beautiful treat on the nose that precedes a more structured palate. Beautiful rum.
Review by Pavel Spacek
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 Adrien B
Nose: coconut, vanilla, acetone. Palate faithful to the powerful nose, alcohol too present, quite flat.
Review by Jacques etdom
Foursquare a little weak in taste, alcohol too poorly integrated and too present (without contributing anything). It's not bad, but it's below most Foursquare products.
