Cane Island Foursquare Barbados

6.6/10 40 community reviews ↓

Opinions run cold on this one. The nose gets a fair reception — vanilla, coconut, toffee with a whiff of nail polish — but the palate is where people cool off: thin, sharp, bitter, herbal and woody, with a short finish. Several tasters expected more from Foursquare and didn't find it. One French reviewer called it a fair-value everyday pour rather than anything memorable.

Keine Ahnung wo ich dieses Sample her hatte, schaut aus wie eine gratis Beigabe. Danke für nichts 😅 Also mit Foursquare hat das meiner Meinung überhaupt nichts zu tun. Den Rest hab ich in den Espresso geschüttet, was auch keine gute Idee war.

Unfortunately very disappointing... Quite a nice nose but the taste is rather bitter, herbal and woody... I absolutely can't recommend it and it's rather a bad example for Barbados rum in my opinion.

Söt och obalanserad, vass i smaken och lite frukt men den är drickbar. Jag misstänker att den i första hand är ämnad att användas som drinkingridiens.

... 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.

A good little foursquare reduced doorlys style. Nothing transcendent, but for the price (36 euros) it's a nice alternative to some much sweeter "rons".

Nase mild Barbados; Zunge zu scharf, würzig, Holz ist da, bissel Tabak, Abgang kurz und scharf, selbst zum Mischen zu teuer
