At nearly 64% this hits harder than most Foursquares — intense, oily, a bit rough around the edges neat. Give it a few drops of water and it settles into roasted coconut, cocoa and cream toffee, with orange peel and tobacco underneath. One taster caught a Jaffa Cakes vibe. Classic Barbados character, just with more muscle and no big surprises.

Last FS for today. Typical Barbados profile but with a oomph. Needs some water to tame but then a nice coconut & roasted cookie dough profile develops. A bit rough around the edges and needs time. //update: really intense experience, without water not my kind of rum

In der Nase kommen typische Barbados-Assoziationen zum Vorschein. Viel Kokosnuss und Papaya, aber auch eine alkoholische Schärfe. Am Gaumen intensiv und kräftig. Mit ein paar Tropfen Wasser öffnet sich der Rum. Dann kommen Vanille-Noten mit Orangenschalen und Tabak. Wer auf Ecken und Kanten steht kommt hier auf den Geschmack.
Review by Frank
Für mich ein typischer Barbados-Vertreter: tropisch-fruchtig, fast floral mit Vanille, Toffee, Tabak und etwas Holz… Nase: viel Kokos mit Papaya und mehliger Banane unterlegt mit einer feinen Vanille-Tabak-Rauch-Note. Süße von gebranntem Zucker und Sahne-Toffee und trockenes vom Holzfass. Alles rund und annehmen. Gaumen: der Alkoholgehalt treibt ordentlich, macht ihn intensiv und kräftig, leicht ölig. Bekommt dadurch auch eine schokoladige Textur mit Vanille. Der Tabak kommt wieder leicht durch. Die Frucht geht dahinter, ist aber mit Aprikose und Papaya auszumachen. Eigentlich ok, die hohen % machen ihn interessant und nicht Einsteigerfreundlich. Wie eingangs erwähnt, Barbados ohne große Überraschungen.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Delicious and absolutely solid Foursquare! Can't really complain! Nice toffee and orange peel notes with milk chocolate. Somehow reminds me of Jaffa cakes! Very similar to the RA 2005 Foursquare but just not quite as balanced and harmonious.
Review by Serge
I'm not a Foursquare expert or fan and ordered a sample bundle to taste my way through... here I have quite an alcoholic nose, but an intense palate with roasted coconut, cocoa, vanilla, toffee and also some dried fruits as well as a natural sweetness. Actually tastes quite good.
Review by Boletus
A fine and easy-drinking rum that I like from the start. Because of the high alcohol strength, adding water certainly doesn't hurt. This takes away some of its power, but no additional aromas are coaxed out. The finish is perhaps a bit unspectacular, but still a rounded and tasty thing.
