CDI Foursquare Barbados 9 ans (Selection Par Fabian Willame) 2010
Bourbon drinkers wanting a light, no-drama Barbados will find their everyday pour here. Honey and vanilla up front, then young wood, popcorn and a nutty, faintly peppery palate. Trouble is, most tasters find it watered down — flavor thins out and the finish stays short at 43%. A couple of members caught unusual notes (chili, green pepper, herbs); most just call it a classic Foursquare profile, fine but familiar.

The look inside the bottle
How does CDI Foursquare Barbados 9 ans (Selection Par Fabian Willame) 2010 taste?
Summarized by AI from 12 community reviews.
Light, watery Foursquare — pleasant but forgettable Fine but nobody's excited — "meh, but fine" sums up the mood. The recurring gripe is a diluted, thin body that loses flavor; nothing here sets it apart.

Round bottling, nice daily sipper but nothing special. Classic Foursquare profile. In my opinion, there are much better products on the market for the price. Definitely nothing you have to buy.

12.02.2021 Sitting at home with some samples. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Light, light wood, faint smoke, banana, light caramel, faint chocolate, vanilla. Palate Light, light wood, light roasted, caramel, pineapple, light polish, light chocolate. Finish Short to medium, wood, light roasted, light caramel, light mango, cinnamon. Extra note. Watered down too much.
Review by Frank
Wow, it smells very sweet and intensely of peach and apricot, but way too artificial, perfumey. Honey and sugar syrup with plenty of vanilla. Unfortunately, this is not my thing at all. On the palate not sweet, rather a bit woody and spicy. Slightly bitter with a hint of orange peel. Fresh twigs, slightly nutty. A bit diluted, but still okay for only 43%. The finish keeps the green twigs. Weak Barbados.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Good Barbados rum, but probably one of many, as for me no unique selling point. Light and easy to drink, but unfortunately also thin or diluted, so in my eyes a lot of taste is lost. Considering the age and alcohol content, it probably delivers what it promises.
Review by Wernie
And once again a fine nose that tastes quite diluted. I would have liked a bit more proof, hence also the short finish, although the peppery note lasts the longest.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very unusual Foursquare. Chili, herbs, honey and baked apple with hazelnut on the nose. Taste-wise first popcorn then again green pepper, herbs and young wood and green pepper. Unfortunately a bit thin and watered down...
