Review by Tom Buteneers
I don't know if the 91 points are entirely correct, but I rate it just a little higher than the ECS 2008 (90 points) which I find a little more bitter than this one. Maybe I should take the 2008 back in and compare again from there....
Review by Leo Tomczak
Great Foursquare at the level of the standard ECS Vintage Range. Reasonable PLV with available purchase options, despite the single cask with 290 bottles.
Review by Joachim Guger
Typischer Foursquare in gewohnter Qualität. Dieser ist eine Spur mehr auf Karamell und sehr würzig. Ein sehr guter Rum auf breit ausgetretenen Pfaden. Will man sich einen Fourquare mit gutem PLV sichern, liegt man hier richtig.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Au nez, c’est boisé (13 ans de vieillissement, ça se sent), avec de belles épices poivrées et de muscade fraichement râpée. On a également quelque chose de plus lourd, de résineux (colle, vernis). Mais on est quand même chez Foursquare, donc on retrouve la noix de coco, du chocolat, de la banane et de la vanille. C’est plutôt bien attractif et concentré comme nez, mais c’est un peu connu et reconnu chez Foursquare. En bouche, c’est très gourmand, c’est épicé, mais pas trop. Beaucoup de douceur avec les fruits secs, le chocolat noir et le tabac. Les fruits sont également de la partie : p
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Typical FS nose: the glueish nose/grain whisky. Pretty good but also as expected so also a bit boring because FS is standard good/great. Pretty active cask.
Review by Rumclub Latvia
I could suggest it is nice classic Foursquare rum matured in ex bourbon barrels. Nothing special here, just round, classic expression with high ABV. Nice sipper, but there are lots of alternatives to this…
Review by Dr.Django
Today a comparison between two Foursquare: 1st Sample X (Kintra) Single Cask, 59.8%: A decent Foursquare. Easy sipper with the well-known typical Foursquare aromas. 2nd Ferroni Barbade 2012 63.4%: Typical Ferroni, very intense. All the aromas of the previously mentioned Foursquare are also present here, only much more intense. The alcohol is unfortunately not very well integrated, but this one is still fun.
Review by Jakob
Nice, round Foursquare with clear sweetness of caramel and vanilla, which, however, never tips into the "sticky". Recognizable spice and discreet alcohol provide a harmonious counterbalance to this. Classic profile with high sweetness, but without great complexity. Nevertheless, a successful bottling.
Review by Johannes
As with FS most- good and nice, does not hurt, but somehow something is missing....
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I just retasted this one today and wow it's good. I love when the lips are tingling and mouth and throat is warm when sipping. I will need to get a backup bottle for myself and I will add it to my tastings as a joker.
