The bottle has been opened for some time, but I poured myself a sample for a rainy day. The nose is classic FS, maybe slightly gentler. On the palate, a nice combination of pralines, chocolate, kola nut, dried fruit, and coffee. Nothing extraordinary otherwise, but still an honest rum.

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 looking for a smooth, sweet rum full of coconut, vanilla, chocolate and caramel. Simply pleasant and not aggressive flavors.
