Honestly hands down one of the best rums I have ever tasted

I've had a few of Foursquare's ECS releases (Sagacity, Empery) but this release of the Detente has to be my favorite. For a 51% ABV spirit, it sure doesn't drink like one. Delicious right out of the bottle, the flavor opens up even more with a chip of ice, and seems to get richer and more luxurious when it sits in the glass for a bit. Among the top of the heap when it comes to rums, and the current crown jewel in my collection, this is the bottle I reach for when I feel like something very special.

Perfect rum in my opinion. Love the smell and taste.

Skvělé nasládlé dřevité pití s ovocnými tóny, lehce štiplavý. Přesně dle mého gusta.

I've had a number of the Foursquare ECS productions.This is my favorite of the bunch.

Foursquare Detente 10 yr rum (51%)

Finally got my hands on a small sample of Foursquare Detente and Foursquare 2005. Starting with Detente let me tell you the nose on this rum is simply fantastic, it reminds me a lot of St.Nicholas Abbey 12 yr. The increased ABV to 51% seems to be the perfect strength for this beauty. If I had access to this rum in my area I would definitely keep 6+ bottles on hand. Sadly in Canada Foursquare offerings are few and far between and nearly impossible to acquire.
Well done Mr. Seale, I will continue my search for other similar products from Foursquare… and thank you to David for providing these samples.
Score: 10

It doesn’t get better than this. Real dope toasted almond and apple skin like feel on the pallet.

Oodles of tropical fruit. This was $70 in northern kentucky where I found it, but this is very much worth the price. I can’t wait to experience other foursquare rums.

Released in August 2020 , aged in bourbon and port barels. I like a little sweetness in it .I think this is one of the best Foursquares I’ve tasted so far.

First Foursquare I’ve had, but absolutely love it! Exceptionally smooth and tastes of bananas and spice.
