Doorly's 14-Year

Wow, nice foursquare Ron I like it so much. Even when it is stronger about alcohol, but it is not problem. Dry but smooth. I like it.

One of the very best in its price range.
Very round, and crazy length.
Fruity nose but then a more oak/vanilla mouth, super easy to enjoy, hard not to take another glass

taste - 9/10
smell - 8/10
sweetness - 7.5/10
price/value rating - 5/10

Caribbean rum at its finest .RL seale you rock my world , a depth on the nose of oak and cask rum . Flavours on sipping starting with a light caramel then going to full oak caks taste ... If I could fill a bar with rum this certainly has to be there

wow. this is really a very good rum. lovely blood orange after taste (not bitter or valencia orange for me). some burnt caramel and very dark chocolate. not sweetened that i can detect. i am buying this and trying the 12 and XO as well. this is really something.

Tasted on 2/14/2024 with Gayle Seale at the FourSquare Distillery. If considering the price point, easily could be rated a 9.

Nose: Vanilla, Caramel and Tropical Fruits
Taste:Palate: Much of the same with some Raisin notes
Finish: More spice and a bit of chocolate on a well balance finished.

Brought this back to the United States with me from Barbados a year and a half ago and have been sipping it neat for the most part since (although it did work its way into a few rum old fashioneds). Finally poured the last drop and realized I never reviewed it.

This is a great choice for a sipper if you can get your hands on a bottle - its quite good for a 14 year old rum. Good mouthfeel, rich flavor.

The only thing holding it back from being rated high is Foursquare's other offerings: its just a notch below the ECS series bottlings that I've sampled.

Super smooth rum. My favorite from the Foursquare Distillery so far...

It's a pretty good rum. For the price it is better than El Dorado 15 which I like but don't think it is outstanding. It doesn't have that complete Foursquare vibe, close in flavor but just a hint. I'd rather spend another 30 or more and get a real Foursquare if available. It's a good holdover though when you can't get the good stuff, which is often where I am located. Heck, even this 14 goes out of stock quick. Grab it if you can get it.

9: The nose is soft and velvety. As in a milk chocolate, one guesses a heavy and deep texture, a velvet with comfortable folds. The fruits take the lead, with orange peel in the lead, with exotic fruits in syrup caught in its patina. With aeration, the soft, full wood offers us notes of tobacco, mellow and toasted coconut. Its white fibre is a fleshy, caramelised juice. The toasted oak brings a little frame and character with time, this is a complete rum that will be hard to resist.Some glue on the nose😉.
10: On the palate, the rum is balanced and flavoursome. The woody concentration abounds with aromas of cocoa, toasted coconut, dark vanilla and sweet oak. The spices are taut, flavourful, like a variety of rich, exotic peppers.

9: The finish gives way to velvety fruit, candied orange peel and dark chocolate.
Sipping it, brightens the day and night wide.
