9.0/10

Un très beau nez sur la vanille, de la colle, un peu de coco fraîche. La bouche confirme le nez, avec en supplément, un beau côté floral et un peu de peps. Cela évolue pas mal dans le verre. Ce qui marque dans ce foursquare, c est son équilibre et sa finesse, pas de marqueur trop présent, tout est bien fondu. Me plaît vraiment beaucoup. Bravo à swell et à versus pour cette pépite barbadienne. Deux mois après ouverture la note de colle devient énorme au nez, cela en deviendrait presque addictif.

Un nez fabuleux, surprenant pour un FS ! On perd les marqueurs habituels remplacés par des odeurs de fleurs et de miel. En bouche c’est superbe, sur la mangue, les agrumes et les épices. Une très très belle sortie qui sort enfin un peu de l’ordinaire de ce que je connais de Foursquare

Œil flatteur sans profondeur, nez extrêmement gourmand, pâtissier, flatteur. Bouche extrêmement puissante, violente même ! Quelle claque ! Une fois le feu passé reste une sacré complexité et une touche végétale qui peut faire penser à l’agave d’une tequila de dégustation. Excellent

8.1/10

Un nez surprenant pour un Foursquare puisque l'amande se substitue à la coco habituelle. Ca semble très gourmand, c'est très sucré et mielleux. En bouche, c'est d'abord le piquant de l'alcool qui s'impose. Puis le miel et la vanille se mêlent à un boisé élégant. Finale moyennement longue qui apporte du chocolat. Sympa. Mais très loin du premier FS sorti par cet embouteilleur.
