Habitation Velier Foursquare Barbados 2013

Made for people who already know Foursquare and want to see it at full pot-still strength. One taster who's had plenty called it the best Habitation Foursquare he'd tried, and reckoned he wouldn't have guessed it blind. Overripe banana, green apple and light varnish on the nose; the palate turns dry and spiced — nutmeg, burnt caramel, dried plums, bitter oak and roasted nuts. At 62% it's young and fiery, not the polished Foursquare people expect.

Tasting together with F. Kraemmer. D D24.07.2026 Nose on an adventure👃: I sense a complex aroma with tropical fruits. There are green apples, citrus notes, light pineapple, cider, and baked banana. Tongue on an adventure 🥃: I taste fruity acids, citrus, burnt sugar, a bit of vanilla, and there’s something roasted and spicy that I find hard to place! The spicy part reminds me a bit of horseradish. The finish of the story💫: Short to medium finish. Balanced & delicious taste of caramel and dark chocolate!

#1802 10-07-2026 - Rate - 8.4 This is the best Habitation Foursquare I have tasted. It’s not a regular Foursquare. If I had tasted this one blind, I would not have guessed it. I really like this Foursquare profile.

So I was really looking forward to this rum because I really like Velier and FS rums. Definitely, the first tasting was a big surprise for me and I was quite unsure about this rum. Young, strong, spirited, not very oaky or smooth.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate

It's just a rather expensive way to make a cocktail. I've really enjoyed this and I hope that these types of rums continue to be released. I feel this has been slightly overlooked after all the hype over the 2006. I would urge you to find a bottle as there...
