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.
The community says- Classic FSQ profile
- Coconut & vanilla
- But: Wants more punch

Typisches Foursquare-Profil. Wirkt irgendwie jünger als er ist. Vielleicht liegt es auch an dem geschmacklich relativ hohen Anteil an Column.
Review by Skyfly
Ein klassischer FSQ ohne großes Schnickschnack. Wie Daniel bereits schrieb fehlen auch mir etwas die Umdrehungen in Gaumen und Abgang. Trotzdem ein solider Vertreter den man auch Anfängern gut servieren kann
Review by Banana Joe
Was soll ich sagen, wo Foursquare draufsteht ist auch Foursquare dein. In der Nase Foursquare, am Gaumen Foursquare. Rundum solide, hätte aber etwas mehr Umdrehungen haben können. Trotzdem schön diese Exclusiv Abfüllung für The Barbados Museum mal im Glas gehabt zu haben.
Review by Nils123
Nicht besonders komplex, aber das muss er auch nicht sein, er ist gut trinkbar und lecker. Die Kokosnuss Note ist obligatorisch für Foursquare. Vom Volumen her ist die Alkoholstärke gut gewählt. Nur der Abgang ist relativ einfach gehalten.
