Berry Bros & Rudd Foursquare Barbados Rum 2010
Sipped neat, this pours like a rounded, oily Foursquare with wood up front, faint pineapple and coconut, and a warm, naturally sweet finish. A few tasters caught a wine-cask lean toward dried fruit and honey. The catch several noted: it stays soft and could be more expressive, and more than one couldn't tell it was Barbados at all.
The community says- Rounded oily body
- Warming finish
- But: Could be more expressive

The look inside the bottle
How does Berry Bros & Rudd Foursquare Barbados Rum 2010 taste?
Aggregated from 20 community reviews.
Rounded, oily Foursquare, easy but restrained Well-liked, rounded Foursquare — wood, light roast, fruit and a warming finish. The recurring gripe is that it plays it safe and doesn't shout its origin.

Very nice Fsq. Rounded, tasty, fsq style, not much alcohol taste. It just could be more expressive. ... Foursquare je destilerka z Barbadosu produkujici uzasne rumy ke kazdodennimu popijeni. Je to rum, ktery oceni zejmena rumari, kteri maji plne zuby cukru a hledaji jemny, nasladly rum plny kokosu, vanilky, cokolady a karamelu. Proste prijemne a nijak agresivni chute.
Review by Roman Lelek
A very interesting rum for me as I didn't know it was Barbados...first taste was a light, rounded rum, with a warm finish and a 48% guess...I like the rum, it's my style. After the second taste, the Foursquare signature and woodiness is already there, while at the same time I can smell a bit of compote, fruitiness or honey.
Review by Jack M
A heavy wine cask influence. Sweet and warming tastes of dried fruit. The Foursquare underpins the rum but it isn’t tastes very different from an ECS release or the like which I think tend to retain more of the rum/ bourbon barrel aspect.
Review by Ondra RumRunner
Nutty and woody aroma. Taste absolutely identical to the aroma. I smell milk chocolate, but it's quite possible it's the chocolate 🍪taste before. Still, this is a very good rum. I probably wouldn't know it was Barbados.
Review by Richard Krupa
I expected Barbados to be better, it has a more sour taste
