How does St. Nicholas Abbey Foursquare 12 Years old taste?
Elegant, balanced Barbados charmer
If you like Mount Gay XO or Doorly’s 12, this is a softer, more elegant side of Barbados—great if you’re ready for a refined but easygoing sipper.
Fans of high‑ABV intensity or dense, multi-layered rums, and buyers very sensitive to price-to-value who may find 40% and the texture too light.

Best Bajan rum I’ve tasted so far. This release is produced by Foursquare for St. Nicholas Abbey, cause they hadn’t rum aged at this length at this stage of their production. Nowadays they have released a 12yo produced at the estate if I’ve understood it right.
This is the Rum that got me interested in the Rum World. So so pure and tasty. Also had the 8 yr & 10 yr. Wish I could get more. Only 1 full bottle left.
A very fine wine, unfortunately hard to come by. Impresses with its balance and fruitiness
Auto-translatedThis one does really well when compared to the 15 year old. Fruity and round and I love the light smoky touch on the palate. Would have loved to try it with a higher ABV because I think it would have done it well.
