Foursquare Private Cask Selection (Berry Bros & Rudd)
Sip it neat — at 55% the alcohol sits well-integrated, no rough heat. It tastes like classic Foursquare: roasted coconut, vanilla, caramel and a chocolatey toasted-oak backbone, with a dry, slightly tannic finish. Most tasters call it smooth and easy. The recurring note is that it's lovely but plays it safe — one member found it "a little boring," in a high-quality way.
- Well-integrated 55%
- Roasted coconut, vanilla

How does Foursquare Private Cask Selection (Berry Bros & Rudd) taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Smooth coconut-vanilla Foursquare, safe but high quality A polished 15-year Foursquare full of coconut, vanilla and toasted wood. Nearly everyone rates it high; the one shared gripe is that it doesn't reach for extra complexity.

Review by zabo
Tasted briefly in a quick test. As usual with Foursquare, every bottling is of a high standard. There is nothing to complain about here. Personally, the bottling is a little too "boring" for me, which is whining at a high level. Unfortunately, this one doesn't really stand out. Solid, tasty easy sipper, a little more ABV probably wouldn't have hurt.
Review by Johannes
Very good, high level, alcohol well integrated, lots of vanillin from oak barrel influence. At most, it lacks a little complexity.
Review by Schnubbii
An der Nase das typische Foursquare Aromenprofil mit Kokos, Vanille und etwas Holz. Genauso geht es am Gaumen weiter, es kommen noch Nelke und Créme Brulé dazu. Im Abgang klingt er mittellang aus mit Créme Brulé und Vanille. Ein guter Foursquare, der nichts falsch macht, aber auch irgendwie nichts Besonderes hat.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Nice and mild but definitely not sweet coconut cream diaru what we expect from FSQ .. Foursquare is a distiller from Barbados producing amazing rums for everyday drinking. It's a rum that will be appreciated especially by rums who are fed up with sugar and are looking for a smooth, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate and caramel. Just pleasant and not aggressive flavours.
Review by julie
Everything I would expect from a Foursquare. Very smooth, slightly sweet and quite vanilla/wood heavy. Some roasted coconut in there too. It’s really easy to drink but can’t find any further complexity/layers in this. Still it’s very pleasant to smell it from time to time and in general a high quality rum.
