Asta Morris Foursquare Rasta Morris 2005
Give it ten minutes to open, then sip it neat — at 63.6% it's too hot to rush. Classic Foursquare: coconut, vanilla, toasted oak and ripe tropical fruit (banana, pineapple), with one taster calling it salted caramel with tropical fruit. Rich and dessert-like but kept in check by the proof. A pastry-shop Barbados rum for people who already enjoy cask strength.
The community says- Coconut and vanilla
- Long finish
- But: Needs time to open

A nose with sweetness and lots of fruit, very ripe, tropical fruit, pineapple and banana. Very expressive on the palate, with top-notch aromas. Very ripe fruit, well-integrated wood and alcohol. These aromas slowly diminish to form a beautiful finish. A blind-tasted rum that's really very good, balanced and fruity.

Amazing nose, sour taste ... 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 Tom Buteneers
Deze heb ik eerst een tijdje laten rusten vooraleer ik me er aan waagde, gezien het hoge alcoholpercentage. Herkenbaar Barbados-profiel en sterk, maar toch is de alcohol niet overheersend. Qua smaak helemaal mijn ding, deed me denken aan gezouten karamel met tropisch fruit. Heerlijke smaak die lang blijft nazinderen.
Review by Boletus
Ein schöner 2005er Foursquare, der ähnlich wie der ECS Nobiliary neben dem typischen Konglomerat aus Karamell, röstiger Eiche mit einem Hauch Klebstoff sowie Vanille und Kokosnuss eher helle Fruchtnoten mit tropischen Nuancen aufweist. Einen sehr leckeren, röstigen und langen Abgang mit einem schönen Twist in Richtung Kaffeeschokolade gibt es noch obendrauf.
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un Foursquare vif, puissant et très généreux. Le nez est très fruité (banane, ananas, raisin, noix de coco), accompagné par de belles épices qui enjolivent le boisé toasté et les notes pâtissières ultra gourmandes qui inondent le nez (caramel, viennoiseries, toffee). Le profil olfactif est très rond, intense et pourtant d’une grande délicatesse. Les promesses du nez sont tenues en bouche. De belles épices (vanille, piment, muscade) viennent se mêler à une espèce de dessert au chocolat, à la noix de coco, à la banane et aux raisins, le tout accompagné de notes chaudes sur le caramel, le toffee et le sucre brun. Le profil est d’une gourmandise presque criminelle, et pourtant la puissance vient équilibrer les débats et offre un profil élégant. L’alcool est très bien intégré. La finale est longue, sèche et tend à montrer un peu les muscles avec quelques notes pimentées, de tabac, de chêne et une touche d’alcool, mais le chocolat au lait, la muscade, le caramel et la noix de coco sont là pour apaiser la tension au niveau du palais. Il s’agit sans aucun doute d’un des meilleurs Foursquare embouteillés par un autre acteur que Velier et la distillerie.
Review by Gaylord Ho
First point: let it breathe. Sion is too aggressive, even sharp (in the mouth). On the nose, I find it very banal and simple. Maybe a little caramel, a smell of foursquare. After 10 minutes, we can taste it, and the surprise: I find that the woody attack is very pronounced, then comes the alcohol and finally that taste so particular to foursquare. The finish is rather short in intensity.
Review by Morgan Garet
Notes habituelles de Foursquare avec, en plus, des notes d'encens et florales très agréables.
Review by ccajerem
👃 typical foursquare: it smells of coconut barbapapa and pastry-style coconut rocher. The intensity is high. 👄 in the same vein: very pastry-like. Coconut is omnipresent. It's not sickening, thanks to its high alcohol content, which fortunately counterbalances everything. Medium finish. A very good foursquare with power. It will be appreciated by rum lovers who want to rub shoulders with the 60+ degree rum club.
Review by Jacques etdom
Un foursquare avec pas mal de fruits au nez et une certaine fraîcheur. Pas aussi lourd que les foursquare que j apprecie vraiment. La bouche est assez vive, l alcool pourrait être mieux intégré. Un côté boisé bien présent. Un bon produit, mais rien de transcendant.
Review by jayelle
On par with some of the ECS year releases. Vanilla, wood, cherry, etc. Very lovely sup.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Passons maintenant à la Barbade avec 2 bouteilles de Rasta: Foursquare 2005-2019 a 63,6% Foursquare 2007-2020 a 61,7% Au nez On est en plein dans le type foursquarien avec du coco, du bois et de la vanille. Dès la première gorgée, la bouche est enveloppée de ce rhum gourmand et rond. Le tout avec une concentration bien gérée. L’alcool est on ne peut plus bien intégré. Perso j’ai une préférence pour la version 2005 qui a une finale plus longue et persistante que le dernier embouteillage 2020 (distillé 2007). Rien de révolutionnaire (comme souvent avec cette distillerie) mais bons!
