Foursquare 2005 Port Cask Finish 9-Year

Første FS rom. Jeg skal vende mig til smagen, men synes den smager rigtig godt. Kunne forstille mig, at hvis jeg skulle lave denne rating om et halvt år, så ville den få en eller to højere.

A nice rum with a distinct nose and taste of port. Long pleasant aftertaste, but overall to much port for my taste.

Smagt til romhattens romfestival 2019. Den får en 7'er.

Fruity undertones of apricot and pear. Finishes with elements of spice and plums.

Nice molasses flavor with some oak as well. Enjoyed it at Rum Fest and had to buy a bottle.

Sugar: Estimated 4 GPL. Another classic rum from the Foursquare masters.
The first thing I noticed was the screw top bottle that has been dipped in wax. This rum is worthy of a proper cork. Second thing, is you need to let this rum catch some air. It's a bit sharp on the nose, so give it a swirl and wait a minute. As expected after 6 years in a Port cask the rum has a nice reddish tint to it as well as a decent aroma and taste of port. Underneath the dominant port taste is a well balanced classic rum with vanilla, oak, some peppery spices (probably from aging in bourbon casks, and a touch of caramel. Nice kick and burn all the way down. Overall I find this rum to be a very good value, but I don't see this being anything higher than an 8 as it has some sharp edges to it.

I have tasted this Foursquare last saturday during a tasting event and I was a little bit disappointed.
This rum is a little bit too thin for me and I was not really able to determine all the blended aromas.
Maybe I should give it another try ...

Le nez est doux et plutôt discret, et est porté par un duo vanille/boisé accompagné de certains fruits (cassis, cerise).
L’attaque est douce en bouche et confirmera les mêmes saveurs.
La finale est légèrement boisée et nous laisse avec une impression de gâteau pâtissier.
Ce n’est pas un mauvais rhum mais trop gourmand pour mon gout.

Sweet spicy with vanilla and banana. I can find the oak but I have more trouble with port. Need to taste again because he was the fourth in a series of 7 tested rum last night and too light body would not let me unforgettable memories

This is a rum with no sugars added, and yet the nose has a very nice sweetness to it. Among the best value for money rums in its price range, that I have tasted.
