Absolutely one of the best out of my 50+ sorts I've tried. Likely the first one from a single barrel.
Easy on nose, smooth, delicious, yota of natural sweetness, long aftertaste, everything is perfect in there.

The Real McCoy - 10+1+1!

Rum of the same quality level as Foursquare exceptional cask selection.
Extremely smooth, easy to drink and pleasant. Excellent balance.
Foursquare exceptional cask is a little more intense, but Real McCoy does not disappoint.
One of the best rum I have ever tasted in my life. No added sugar or color... perfect !!

Very expensive and hard to find in Europe.

yes, it s another fruity Bajan, ABV 46% is perfect(i read 40% here on the site but my bottle have 46% and no, i don t see it s a special edition), tropical fruits on the nose and in mouth too plus vanilla, caramel, some oak, good dose of natural sweetness (barbados make only no additives rum except for plantation brand) i really love Bajan rums for this very fruity profile, i paid it just 5 euro less than doorly s 14 so it s not cheap in my country but i m ok if ABV and taste are ok ! if you search fruitiness in a rum, this is a right one ! i see many saying is like bourbon or whiskey, i have to say it s not, find me a whisky or bourbon with so much tropical fruits flavor and i ll switch on it immediately, maybe people are too much addicted on sugar added rums with just 40% ABV so they say so ... don t understand them really ! this is a genuine product with no additives and not too watered, im displeased they underestimate real quality in a rum !

Naturally sweet (that means no added sugar), smooth, and full of oak and bourbon overtones. This is one of Foursquare's finest. It's 180 degrees away from all the sugared rums that are so popular around here. It's really good...and it's already so smooth that you don't need to add ice or water. Best enjoyed neat.

There is very little burn in sipping this and it has a toasted oaky vanilla flavor that comes through. It's not as bold as Doorly's 12 year which has a more dominant copper and aged fruit like flavor. IMO it doesn't have that coppery like flavor of rl seales 10 yr or Doorly's of any kind. It's smooth on the throat for sure and definitely woody w some brown sugar. It's like an unsugared and smoother Pampero Aniversario RE. This has sweet wet oak flavor and pretty sharp tannins that are different from other foursquare offerings, I love it. Update: just tasted this after tasting Don Q Anejo and the toasted cocunut flavor of this rum becomes highly noticeable, smooth and delicious, gotta drink it straight!

this is tremendous. so much barrel and bourbon character and yet the molasses flavor and spice aren't lost. delicately sweet without being cloying. one of the better rums i've had.

This bottle is probably one of the best bottles that's probably readily available. A complex bottle with nice woody and spice notes that just changes in your mouth. Great rum to sip on make into simple cocktails, like a rum old fashioned that plays well with the rum.

Another wonderful unadulterated rum from Mr. Seale and his Foursquare Distillery. Rich rum flavors, notes of toffee, oak, molasses and spices, but at 80 proof, none of the alcohol burn. An example of Bajan rum at its best.

Having enjoyed a bottle of The Real McCoy 5 yr rum it was time to open up a bottle of The Real McCoy 12 yr rum. Being produced by Foursquare Distillery I had great expectations and was not disappointed. This rum is smooth, unadulterated and is right up my alley. Not quite a “10” but certainly a 9+ rating. Well done Mr. Seale.

Scuttle me if this not be a truly delightful rum! She smells sweet, like a lot of brown sugar, but there also be a fair amount of oak, a bit of caramel, and wee tiny bit of chocolate hidin' below deck. As for taste, she be RICH... soft and silky smooth, but not as sweet as she smells. The bourbon comes through first, and then a bit of caramel that quickly turns into chocolate and fruits together - all even-Steven like. Not sweet, not bitter, but good together - like cannons and balls. The finish be a little on the peppery side with almost zero burn goin' down the hatch. Aye, this be a smooth and flavorful rum from start to finish. If you find yourself in a port servin' this, you owe it to yourself to try some while on shore leave. Doctor's orders...
