Foursquare Rum Sponge No. 19 (2005 & 2007)
Sipped neat, this drinks far softer than 57% has any right to — coconut and dark chocolate up front, a touch of dried date, a peppery, cinnamon-dusted finish. A few members note the alcohol isn't quite fully tucked in, and several call it rounder but less complex than the pure 2007 Foursquares. Still, one taster simply calls it "very easy to drink".

How does Foursquare Rum Sponge No. 19 (2005 & 2007) taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Soft, coconut-and-chocolate cask-strength Foursquare A well-liked everyday Foursquare — smooth and easygoing rather than deep. Fans of the 2007 vintages find it a touch thinner and less layered than they'd hoped.

Beautifully heavy and extremely round foursquare. A well-made blend of the two vintages. Overall, however, a little weak on the chest and less complex than comparable vintages from 2007. Nevertheless, a delicious rum!

Good, rather ordinary Foursquare without any special edges. Alcohol could be a little better integrated.
Review by Timo Groeger
Quite a nice Spinge, but somehow expected more. Pleasant sweetness on the nose. We have coconut and dark chocolate here. Coconut and dark chocolate on the palate, as well as a rather pleasant sweetness.

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.
