CDI Foursquare Barbados (Bottled for Germany) 2010
Neat at 61.2% this one comes out swinging — the alcohol dominates the nose and tongue, and more than one taster wished it had stayed longer in the cask. Behind the heat there's toffee, orange, coconut and a honeyed sweetness, plus a roasted, slightly burnt-and-bitter edge on a woody, dry finish. A single-cask Foursquare that divides the room: interesting, but not the distillery at its best.
The community says- Toffee-orange notes
- Roasted character
- Alcohol too hot

How does CDI Foursquare Barbados (Bottled for Germany) 2010 taste?
Aggregated from 14 community reviews.
Hot single-cask Foursquare, alcohol runs the show Most tasters land the same way — the alcohol isn't well integrated, so the fruit and spice struggle through. Fair, not one of Foursquare's stronger single casks.

Foursquare Distillery 2010 Barbados Compagnie des Indes Bottled for Germany Distilled: 12.2010 Bottled: 06.2019 Aged 8 Years 61,2% Cask No. RFBS139 One of 253 Bottles Melasse Rum Farbe: Helles Gold Geruch: Süß und aromatisch. Aromen von Toffee, Fudge und Eiche. Zudem Kaugummi und Capri Sonne Orangensaft. Geschmack: Zunächst süß und leicht fruchtig im Mund, dann würzig. Beim Schlucken wird es dann alkoholisch-würzig-scharf, pfeffrig und intensiv. Schmeckt nach Honig und Fudge. Lecker! Abgang: Mittellang, würzig scharf und holzig trocken. Altes Holz, bitter im Nachgeschmack.
Review by mto75
an der Nase eher flach und unangenehm stechend, am Gaumen Kokosnuss, das beste ist eigentlich der Abgang mit einer leckeren Nutella-Note. Haut einen insgesamt aber nicht vom Hocker.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
sehr röstig, speckiger Foursquare! die typischen Banane Kokos und Nuss Noten sind eher im Hintergrund. dem hätte vermutlich noch etwas länger im Fass gut getan, alkohol könnte deutlich besser integriert sein. schmeckt auch etwas verbrannt und bitter hintenraus. nicht unbedingt einer der besseren foursquares...
Review by Oliver
Alcohol not well integrated.
Review by Christoph
Zum Glück ein kurzer Abgang. Nicht nur eine stechende Nase auch im Mund mehr alkoholisch als sonst was, entsprechend können sich Fruchtnoten und anderes nicht wirklich entfalten. Würde der Alkohol hier (auch nach längerer Standzeit) nicht so in der Nase brennen und die Zunge geradezu betäubt werden, hätte was aus ihm werden können.
