Review by zabo
Naja was will man dazu sagen, das typische Foursquare Profil mit viel Kokosnuss. Hinten raus merkt man das Holz/Fass schon ein bißchen mehr als bei anderen Abfüllungen. Ohne große Überraschung, hohe Qualität wie immer, aber auch eindimensional.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Sehr leckerer extrem runder 98er Foursquare. Die 25y im Fass merkt man ihm kaum an. Kokos, Banane, Milchschokolade und etwas Zimt und Vanille. Fast wie Schoko Pudding! Überraschend wenig Tannine und generell sehr mild und ausbalanciert. Für 100€ sehr fair.
Review by DomM
Classic FS profile with lots of wood on the palate.

Review by DosenZorn
Messebewertung GRF 2025: Foursquare Essenz, sehr viel Kokosnuss sowohl an Nase als auch am Gaumen. Süß, gefällig, sanft und eingänglich. Leider etwas eindimensional. Vom Preis her bin ich positiv überrascht, hätte mit wesentlich mehr gerechnet.
Review by Johannes
Foursquare-Liebhaber werden hier auf jeden Fall auf ihre Kosten kommen! WAs ist das für ein PLV-Knaller? Der quasi älteste Jahrgang von Foursquare für gute 100 Euro? Wahnsinn! Geschmacklich kommt das typische Foursquare-Profil raus, das hier vielleicht etwas eindimensional ist. Etwas zu viel Column, zudem leichte Gin-Noten Die tropischen Noten sind nicht ganz so präsent.
