Aroma visualization from community tastings
TCRL Foursquare Barbados 2005
One taster called it a "powerful and spicy Foursquare," and that fits: fresh glue on the nose that fades on the palate, then an unexpected full sweetness that settles into pepper, cinnamon and warm oak. Pineapple, toffee and a bit of coconut round it out. A few note it leans a touch column-forward and one-dimensional next to other Foursquare bottlings, but most enjoy the long, spicy finish.

Review by Fuwi
Die 55,2% sind unglaublich gut eingebunden, angenehm florale Nase, ich meine Jasmin zu entdecken. Aber ich sitze auch gerade auf der Terrasse und es blüht einiges. Toller Rum, der lange und angenehm nachhallt
Review by Johannes
Guter Foursquare, der vielleicht etwas eindimensional und nach zu viel Column schmeckt.
Review by zabo
Verglichen mit den anderen Foursquare ECS Abfüllungen, kann er meines Erachtens nicht mit halten. Denoch finde ich ihn sehr gut, für einen Foursquare, da für ihn keine utopischen Preise aufgerufen werden.
Review by Felix Reiber
Ein sehr kraftvoller und würziger Foursquare aus Barbados. In der Nase kommt eine Frische, klebstoffähnliche und würzige Note zum Vorschein. Am Gaumen wird man schnell von einer unerwarteten, vollen Süße überrascht, welche dann in Würzigkeit und einer angenehmen Wärme abklingt. Die Gumminote aus der Nase verschwindet fast vollständig. Die tropische Fruchtigkeit unterstreicht diese Aromen gut. Der Abgang ist lang, würzig und Anklänge von Papaya halten sich bis zum Schluss. Ein äußerst preiswerter Rum.
