Foursquare 1998 Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Foursquare

“Good rum with loves of burnt sugar and molasses notes that remind me of Zacapa rums. I like!”

87
Foursquare 1998
A single cask rum from the Foursquare distillery in Barbados (makers of a very successful spiced rum).

This was distilled in 1998 and aged for 10 years in a bourbon cask (cask 2807) before bottling in July 2008.

If you like this kind of rums, you need to try Zacapa nŗ23 rum

This dram has a amber-like color.

Nose (86): more than average. spices, cinnamon, sugar cane, brown sugar. Very nice spicy rum. It has something that remind me powerfully of Zacapa rums.

Palate (88): light, smooth, oily. brown sugar, sugar cane, burnt sugar, spices, cinnamon, molasses.

Finish (86): longer than average. burnt sugar, molasses, brown sugar.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Foursquare 1998 with 87 points over 100.
