27.11.2025 Relaxing with an older sample while watching Hellboy. ------------- This is a very rare rum as only 250 bottles were made. If you get the chance then you should have a go. It virtually explodes in your mouth, and you really taste the alcohol. Let it rest in the glass for at least 15 minutes to avoid a punch from the alcohol.

Chocolate, coffee, coconut. Wow taste! ... Foursquare is a distillery from Barbados producing amazing rums for everyday sipping. It's a rum especially appreciated by rum lovers who are fed up with sugar and are looking for a smooth, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate, and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.

It's quite round. Superb juice. Medium length. Very indulgent.

Few distilleries inspire the devotion Foursquare does. Bought by Sir David Seale in 1995, distilling since 1996 and run by master distiller Richard Seale, it has become the most awarded and most collected rum producer of the modern era. Its cask-strength Exceptional Cask Selection releases sell out in minutes.
