Foursquare Private Cask Selection (Nickolls & Perks)

Foursquare regulars will know exactly what they're getting here: 15 years in ex-bourbon, no wild finish, just that dependable Barbados profile. Expect dried plum and port on the nose, then cherry, leather, tobacco and oak on the palate. At 58% it comes in "very spicy and hot up front," so give it air or a drop of water. Fruity, dry, and steady — no surprises, good or bad.

The community says
  • Typical Foursquare profile
  • Dried fruit, cherry, oak
  • But: Hot up front

How does Foursquare Private Cask Selection (Nickolls & Perks) taste?

Summarized by AI from community reviews.

Classic dry Foursquare, hot but reliable Reliable, dry Foursquare that hits the usual high level but doesn't set itself apart from other Private Cask or ECS bottles. Hot at first; several say it opens up with time.

In comparison, two bottlings from the Private Cask Selection. Both have the usual high, typical Foursquare profile that you can rely on as always. However, they do not stand out from other PCS or ECS bottlings. Solid bottlings as usual.

Regular Foursquare without much excitement. You get 15 years of ex-bourbon and nothing more. Not an outlier at the top or bottom, but solid stuff.

Typical Foursquare, but definitely needs time to breathe. Very sharp and alcoholic at the beginning. After about 1 hour it becomes more accessible. Like all Foursquare, rock solid, does what it's supposed to do, but doesn't stand out from the other bottlings.

Avg Rating 8.3/10 over 630 Rums

Few distilleries inspire the devotion Foursquare does. Bought by Sir David Seale in 1995, distilling since 1996 and run by master distiller Richard Seale, it has become the most awarded and most collected rum producer of the modern era. Its cask-strength Exceptional Cask Selection releases sell out in minutes.
