Aroma visualization from community tastings
Foursquare Flensburg Rum Company Sea Shepherd Stingray 2013
Opinions land in the middle here: most tasters call it a decent but underwhelming Foursquare. The Barbados markers are there — caramel, vanilla, coconut, milk chocolate over toasted oak — but at 64.8% the alcohol never really settles, even with water and a long rest. Flavours read a bit thin and one-note next to bolder Foursquare bottlings. Several tasters ended up mixing it.
The community says- Classic Barbados profile
- Good mixer

The look inside the bottle
How does Foursquare Flensburg Rum Company Sea Shepherd Stingray 2013 taste?
Summarized by AI from 27 community reviews.
Hot, thin cask-strength Foursquare Middle-of-the-road for a Foursquare. The classic caramel-coconut-vanilla profile is there, but the heat is poorly integrated and the palate stays thin — many drank it neat once, then reached for cola.

Rather average overall. Even after breathing for over an hour, the alcohol is still quite present and the taste is not particularly complex... a little caramel, milk chocolate and coconut. just ok for the price.

Edit: tried again from the freshly opened bottle. For the price back then, really okay. The Foursquare markers are there. Makes a good figure as a mixer. Too alcoholic neat. Unfortunately not as good as expected. Rather one of the worse Foursquare. You can sip it in between. But I think it will meet its end as a Cuba Libre. As announced, ended up as a mixer. Still a good rum for the price.
Review by w00tAN
Relatively mixed I would say. Nose: caramel, vanilla, alcohol, little to no fruit. Rather monotonous and somewhat angular in the mouth, although it has a good mouthfeel. Rather short finish. For the money, I would rather go for an ECS

Rather disappointing overall. Even after breathing for over an hour, the alcohol is still quite present and the taste is not particularly complex...

#4724 12.05.2024 Relaxing at home. Nose Fresh, alcoholic, light caramel, coconut, light pineapple, faint chocolate. Palate Warm, alcoholic, fruits, coconut, light chocolate, faint caramel, tannins, light wood. Finish Medium to long, wood, alcoholic, light caramel, faint chocolate, light citrus. The empty glass has stronger chocolate and light herbs. ABV is pretty badly integrated even after a long rest it is still very present. With some water the ABV will smoothen out and more destinct flavours will appear.
Review by LukaŽiga
7,9:On the nose, alcoholic, glue, slightly pungent, barrel impact is obvious, toasted wood notes like pastry, caramel, quite thin, coconut, dried apricots, raisins, banana, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, citrus fruits arise, cinammon and black pepper, a bit burnt tones, caramelized burnt sugar, some cardboard, metallic patina and molasses with black tea. 8:On the palate, the attack is alcoholic, intense, hot, dry with sweet toasted wood notes like burnt sugar, caramel, roasted nuts, leather and milk chocolate, spicy with pepper, ginger, cinnamon, vanilla, fruity with coconut, banana, dried apricots, raisins and citrus fruits, as molasses is earthy with tobacco, dark with black tea. 7,7:The finish is short, dry and tannic, alcoholic, with toasted oak notes like coffee, caramel, spicy vanilla, green pepper, fruity with dried fruits and coconut, citrus fruits..
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
There are better Foursquare rums. Remains quite alcoholic and is clearly less intense in the flavors like other Foursquare. Overall, solid to good.
Review by Johannes
Phew, lots of column style, alcohol too present, not well integrated.
Review by Boletus
I still find this ''Foursquare'' okay, but unfortunately nothing more. I find it hard to enjoy neat and although adding a lot of water reduces the aggressiveness, the alcoholic sharpness remains and no new facets are released. That's a pity, as there are some nice approaches.
Review by Filip Heimerle
Classic sharp foursquare with those percentages a bit worse to drink. But otherwise good barbados
Review by Jonas
Solid Foursquare and also ok in terms of price.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Barbados profile. But weak ... 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 seek a mild, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate, and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
Tasted at GRF2025 Not the best Foursquare, still decent.
