Paul
Pacult recently gave Foursquare Spiced Rum three stars and said:…
The initial nosing pass unearths scents from clove to nutmeg to cinnamon
to honey. The second whiff focuses more on the spices than the sweetness,
alluding to what one normally describes as “Holiday spices” – the
penultimate sniffing adds a welcome dash of citrus rind to the aromatic
mix – the final nosing pass, following a full twelve minutes of
aeration, loses not one whit of potency or vibrancy and indeed seems to
deepen into a round, almost biscuity fragrance… the palate is soft,
smooth, spicy sweet and most inviting… the finish is sweet, yet zesty
and spicy enough to be balanced and warming; a natural and completely
viable marketplace rival of category leader Captain Morgan.
