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

I bought this with a little trepidation due to my dislike of bourbon. I’ve been wanting to try one of the Foursquare ECS rums for a while due to the high rating from everyone. This seemed like a good choice due to aging in the ex-port casks. Wow! I cracked this open last night with some friends for a taste. Everyone absolutely loved it. The initial heat was followed by a nice, mild spiciness and then the flavor of the port rolled across the tongue. This may have been one of the best rum‘s I’ve ever had. I’m going to be in trouble since I plan on buying a few more bottles to keep in my stash.
First Foursquare I’ve had, but absolutely love it! Exceptionally smooth and tastes of bananas and spice.
I really enjoy aroma and taste of this rhum. True is that little bit kick.

After breaking the seal on this bad boy and pouring myself a small glass of Detente I immediately notice a much lighter color from this particular offering. Closer to the golden hue of St. Nicholas Abbey. Mild bourbon and oak smell that’s slightly sweet. Wow.... very mild ...
The 51% alcohol is very easy for me to drink. Very smooth. Oak, bourbon and the port cask subtitles are present in your mouth. I like this rum, but it isn’t as memorable as some other offerings. Not as complex as I like and a shorter mild finish. I like my rum to stick to my mouth for a while. Overall enjoyable, but IMO not there best offering.... still a solid experience

Udemærket rom men ikke så god som andre Foursquare

Jeg synes ikke helt denne rom er på niveau med de andre Foursquare.
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.

Pleasant amber colour and whatever fumes you encounter at the start quickly fade away to reveal a complex nose of raisins, baked apple and maybe a bit of white pepper. Lingers long on the palate to a delightful Christmas pudding finish. Wonderful.

Updated, yes Classic Foursquare Color
9
/10
out of 10
Fresh update, I’ve been saving my older Foursquare rums but just sampled the last four, and I have to say that Nobiliary, and 2008 pinch away from Detente. Detente has great flavor and stays with you but the depth and smoothness of 2008 and Nobiliary shine through, so I’m dropping to a 9. The first thing I notice is the Classic Foursquare Color, then the nose is a bit different from Nobiliary, 2008, and Sagacity. The taste is awesome sweet bourbon notes with a nice island spice. Trying it side by side with Premise which I believe was a sherry finish, and Sagacity Madeira finish and definitely like the Detente better. Much smoother marriage of flavors, leaves you with lots of lingering flavor with a little heat but in a good way. This is an excellent rum, glad I bought 2 bottles.ok on to my 4th bottle and this is now my favorite rum. Easy to enjoy without burning your throat. Love the full body and flavors and great price point. Still can not find in Florida keep shipping it in.
