This is my fourth Foursquare variant and I am sure it will not be my last. I was like the many tainted by a certain pirate brand that saw Rum as a mixer at best. However, brands like 4S and Penny Blue have changed my mind completely. This will be the oldest of my trials so far so let's see if it lives up. Nose is sweet almost like a vanilla syrup, but at these high proofs I find quite a bit of alchol on the nose. First sip lets you know this isn't a frat party Rum. At 122 this sips like a strong whiskey. Honey, caramel, and hints of maple syrup wash with the heat and envelope your taste buds. As the heat fades away you are left with a smoldering sweetness that seems to go on forever. Overall, this is probably not the best Foursquare dram I have had, but it is still a darn good one. This proof might be on the high end of where you want to see a Rum. A few drops of water will probably be appreciated by many, but in anycase 4S has another winner.
