The Barbados Museum Foursquare Garrison Grog Fine Barbados Rum

Coconut and vanilla up front, then caramel and toffee doing most of the work, with a little roasted oak behind — textbook Foursquare, just at a milder volume. Several members like it plenty but wish it hit harder; a few call it a touch thin and wanting more punch for 14 years and 48%. Round, easy, and a fine one to hand a beginner.

Erst einmal Danke @bananaJoe, dass Du diesen Rum geteilt hast. Erst ist ein klassischer Foursquare für schöne Sommerabende. Vom ABV her leicht zu trinken mit viel Kokosnuss und Vanille-Süße. Das passt 👍🏻

7.9/10

On the nose: Woody, coconut, vanilla and caramel notes. Round. Quite the typical Foursquare notes, but without the intensity. Taste: Vanilla, coconut and caramel. Caramel/toffee being the dominant note. Then you get little bit of woody notes and some roasted notes to the palate. Quite mild and easy to drink. Finish: Warm. Caramel and toffee. Vanilla. Spices and woody notes. Nice to be able to taste rum available exclusively in Barbados Museum. Easy to drink and its good for the people who are at the beginning of their rum journey.
