Foursquare Private Cask Selection (Whisky & Rum Aan Zee)
Sip this one neat — it's a classic Foursquare built for a tasting glass, not a mixer. Expect the familiar glue-and-vanilla nose, then caramel, roasted coconut and dried fruit with light chocolate and coffee in the empty glass. The 15 years adds depth and a slightly bitter, acidic edge that one taster felt was almost a touch too old. Balanced, dry, and unmistakably FSQ.
The community says- Balanced and dry
- Roasted coconut, vanilla

Review by Basti
Am Gaumen initial ein kurzer floraler/blumiger Einstieg, danach dann das altbekannte FS-Profil. Im direkten Vergleich mit den Doorly's 14yr ist die Nase hier insgesamt etwas süßer mit mehr gerösteter Kokosnuss, wohingegen der Doorly's etwas mehr Würze vom Fass mitbringt. Am Ende hat für mich der PCS etwas die Nase vorn, was jedoch nicht den preislichen Unterschied (Stand heute) rechtfertigt. PLV-Sieger ist eindeutig der Doorly's 14!
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Private bottle for www.zeewijck.nl. Original price 79 euros. On the nose: typical FS: glue, velpon. Like a grain whisky. A bit acidic. But as always the charm is in the taste not the smell. It packs a lot of nice yet predictable FS flavours. Well balanced. Fruity. Vanilla. The sour note is there but stays in place. Nothing surprising but well aged. 48% is perfect. I don't think it gets much better for it's price.
Review by Leo Tomczak
Soft entry-level FS. But has beautiful depth at the back by the 15 years. Thus also quite bitter, almost already a Tacken too old. But still hits exactly the right point.
Review by Johannes
Alcohol very well integrated. Amazingly good Foursquare!
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Another lovely release where the price matches what you get. Fruity well balanced with spice and roasted wood. Nice curtains and the empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some chocolate and light coffee.
