Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Not the best of the series but not the worst either. I'd say that the price at release matched the quality. A well rounded, oily and sweet rum with fruit and light wood with sprinkles of caramel and molasses.
Review by Chrischi78
Kleine Reihenverkostung des RX2192, des RX7623 und des RX7158. Insgesamt landet der 7158 auf dem ersten Platz. Alle haben ein sehr ähnliches Profil. Alle sehr gefällig. Mir gelingt es aber nicht, sieht man vom ABV ab und der unterschiedlichen Intenistät echte Ausreisser in der Qualität zu benennen…
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Solider Foursquare mit einer angenehmen gut gewählten Trinkstärke, eher trocken gehalten. Ungewöhnlich intensive Note nach leicht säuerlichen Himbeeren, Vanille und Eichenholz. Wenig Komplexität und das Mundgefühl ist etwas "dünn"und der Abgang eher kurz. Hätte ich mir mehr erhofft.
Review by Serge
Seltsamer Foursquare … dem Alkoholgehalt entsprechend etwas dünn am Gaumen, aber noch OK. Was mir weniger passt ist die Fruchtsäure sowie eine Pfeffer-Note, die das Foursquare-Gefühl bei mir irgendwie nicht aufkommen lässt. Oder ich bin dich erkältet und mein Gaumen trügt mich 😂
Review by Ondra RumRunner
Tento rum z Barbadosu se vyznačuje bohatou a intenzivní vůní s tóny lepidla, kokosu, koření a jemných alkoholových stop. Chuť je výrazná, olejnatá a pepřová, s podtóny vanilky, kokosu a jemné sladkosti, které doplňují pikantní kořeněné tóny. --- . This Barbadian rum features a rich and intense aroma with notes of glue, coconut, spices, and subtle alcoholic hints. The taste is bold, oily, and peppery, with undertones of vanilla, coconut, and a touch of sweetness, complemented by spicy flavors. --- Dieser Rum aus Barbados zeichnet sich durch ein reiches und intensives Aroma mit Noten von Klebstoff, Kokos, Gewürzen und subtilen Alkoholspuren aus. Der Geschmack ist kräftig, ölig und pfeffrig, mit Untertönen von Vanille, Kokos und einer leichten Süße, die von würzigen Aromen ergänzt wird.

Such an ordinary FQ, which didn't impress much
