Aroma visualization from community tastings
La Maison Du Whisky Foursquare Rum Barbados (Flag Series) 2006
"Typical Foursquare profile" is how several tasters sum it up — coconut, milk chocolate, vanilla and caramel on the nose, rounder and lighter-fruited than most. At 60.3% the palate turns spicy and woody, and a few found it sharp, dry, even a touch artificial on the finish. Most enjoyed it; the recurring gripe is it's hard to tell apart from a standard Foursquare.
The community says- Coconut and chocolate nose
- Rounded, opulent body
- Keep in mind: Sharp at 60%

How does La Maison Du Whisky Foursquare Rum Barbados (Flag Series) 2006 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Classic coconut-chocolate Foursquare at cask strength Well-liked Barbados sipper with the classic coconut-chocolate-vanilla profile. Most rate it highly, though a few call the high-proof finish sharp and dry, and hard to distinguish from cheaper Foursquares.

Review by zabo
Very tasty as a CubaLibre, but unfortunately the price is a little too high. Edit: The Swell and the Barbados 2006 Flag Series have been added to the big crosstasting of the Velier bottlings. Unfortunately, it has not yet been possible to get a sample of the 70th. In general, it can be said that there were no major differences on the nose when flying blind. However, there are recognizable differences in the taste itself. In my opinion, however, three clearly stand out and are by far the worst of the bunch. First impression 8.7 Detailed tasting follows Edit: very great representative of Foursquare. I will soon be doing a crosstasting, blind of course, with the Velier bottlings. But I dare to predict that it will more than hold its own against these.
Review by mto75
Of the 16 years of maturation, the master has spent 14 in tropical ex-bourbon casks...so very promising! The nose is full of coconut, butterscotch, cream pudding, oak barrel, slightly tart notes in the background (somewhere between hops and grapefruit). Allspice on the palate, toasted barrel, tannins, the high ABV comes across as a little sharp
Review by Joachim Guger
Typical Foursquare profile. This is very round on the nose, lots of coconut, lots of milk chocolate, but little spice, little wood 😀 Very strong and spicy in the mouth. It then goes into a finish that I find really unpleasant, very artificial (plastic!!!) and difficult to describe. 🤔🤔🤔 Strong opening, but then... Thanks to Bonn for this interesting sample. 🤩
Review by LukaŽiga
8,8:On the nose, toasted/roasted wood notes like caramel, toffee, pastry, burnt sugar, chocolate, hazelnuts, spicy with allspice, nutmeg, coconut, dried apricots, raisins, orange and glue, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, molasses is candied, thick, earthy, vegetal, leather is stronger, crème brûlée, biscuits, vanilla join, metallic patina, fruits are syrupy. 8,6:On the palate, the attack is fruity with dried fruits like apricots, raisins, coconut, citrus fruits, joined by pineapple, cherry and berries, marmalade like, slightly creamy with dairy, medicinal with glue, molasses is earthy with cigar tobacco, floral and the wood toasted with chocolate, caramel, hazelnut, toffee, pastry, spicy, warm with nutmeg, allspice, vanilla, a bit salty, smoky, tannic and dry. 8,7:The finish is long, dry&tannic, round and creamy with dairy, toasted oaky notes, spicy, smoky, slightly burnt, fruity with dried, citrus fruits, coconut, pineapple, as molasses is vegetal, earthy. Edit:11.10.26
Review by Oliver
Wow, a really great Foursquare!
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
All in all, rather disappointing for me. The nose still promises a nice representative of the 2006 vintage with lots of baked orange, coconut and allspice. But the taste is rather sharp-edged and very dry, almost bitter, burnt and overripe. The otherwise more intense banana and coconut notes tend to fade into the background here. Too bad!

Review by DomM
Velier FS (+ a fee spected other contenders) blind cross tasting: Honestly, the results here were very close. The Belier bottlings display a very high quality thourgout the range. Triptych and Pleni came out on top for me closely followed by Destino. I was somewhat surprised, that Sassafras and 2006 came out rather at the bottom, while I enjoyed both very much on their own. Raconteur also quite low in the ranking with Principia clearly at the bottom.
Review by Boletus
The combination of Foursquare and bourbon barrels usually works. This release is no exception, even though its maturation seems less intense, making it more light-fruity and with somewhat less spice and roast aromas. The edges and corners give it a lively character that I find quite interesting and appealing, unlike the pricing.
Review by Jakob
Delicious, round Barbados rum with a classic Foursquare profile. Not a revolution, but it has everything that Foursquare promises.
Review by Serge
Actually quite tasty Foursquare and for me on a good to high ECS level. Classic Foursquare nose with the usual aromas (in quite high intensity) as well as good melting and integration. On the other hand, not cheap either.
Review by Johannes
The nose is surprisingly good with tropical notes. Unfortunately, the palate can't quite keep up. Already a certain depth, but a little too alcoholic, a little soapy.
Review by Manuel
Very interesting and tasty Foursquare. Very intense smell of vanilla, caramel, wood. Long finish with a slightly sweet note. Alcohol is a bit sharp-edged but still within limits.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A Foursquare distilled entirely in pot stills, which is more aromatic than it appears. The nose is full of tropical fruit and citrus, sweet spices and caramelized aromas. A round, easy-drinking profile. The attack on the palate is very similar to the nose: coconut, dried fruit, citrus, vanilla, nutmeg, molten woody chocolate, hazelnut, caramel and toffee give an opulent, generous rum. Despite all its obvious qualities, it remains difficult to distinguish from a more conventional Foursquare. The alcohol is well integrated. The finish is of decent length, with fruity, chocolate, pastry, woody and spicy fragrances. Relatively smooth and warm, even silky. The bottled Foursquare is of good quality, but its premium positioning is too high by today's bottling standards.
Review by Double Barrel
Tasted at Whisky Live, a very very good Foursquare above the rest
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 are looking for a gentle, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate, and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.
