Foursquare The Real McCoy 3 Years
Opinions land all over the map here. Most tasters call it a mixing rum from Foursquare — banana, vanilla and sweet notes up front, a bit of earthy, woody character, and a short finish. A few enjoy it neat; one found it edgy, like "cheap alcohol," until the musty, woody side grew on him. Light, fruity, and easy for the money.

Light banana-vanilla Bajan, best for mixing Most see it as a tasty everyday mixer with good value — banana and vanilla, a little funk. A few sip it happily; others find the finish harsh and short.

Retasting this rum 😊 This rum can actually be used as a sipper but I think most will use it in mixers. It will probably be used by most for a drink or punch. But it's also a really good sipping rum. Price to quality is very good.
Review by patataslocos
Not too bad for sipping if you are into that but Excellent for cocktails
Review by Mark Leggett
Rum is fun because of all the differences you find. This rum has earthy, grassy aromas with hints of spice and vanilla. Flavor is very similar with earthy and vanilla and a hint of spice

Lots of people seem to like this but my immediate reaction was it tasted like “cheap alcohol”. Much more edge than most rums I enjoy. But then I realized maybe it’s not a style I’m used to so I kept tasting. I started to recognize its flavor as musty and woody, which may be a taste I could acquire with more tastings. I think “musty old house” when I think of this rum. I get no funk or fruit, which I normally associate with round banana notes.
Review by Ian Gilman
Definitely another mixing rum from Foursquare, lacking the nuances and complexity of their premium products. Still great value and tasty, with a nose and palette heavy on vanilla and sweets, but with some dried fruits and maybe even some leather to compliment. Very short finish.
Review by Emil G.S. Munk
Very interesting rum with a surprising fruitiness and a little funk when considering it is a Barbados rum. You get a lot of flavor compared to the price point but the aftertaste is a little harsh and unpleasant. Definitely not a bad rum at that price

Read full review ›Tasting them together to see what the difference is. I'm pleased firstly that there is a noticeable difference as that might debunk some of the conjecture that they are the same rum just re-bottled. A bit of a rarity in that this is a good rum from Foursquare rather than...
