Foursquare 14 yo 'Nobiliary' (62%, OB, Barbados, bourbon, +/-2019) Five stars

Some say this is illegal. Other people claim that it wrecks your spectacles because of the high strength. That's all very opaque, but let's try it. I'm usually trying all Foursquares, but rather around 18 months after they come out, as I wouldn't like to interfere. You understand me? Colour: amber. Nose: painting varnish and drawing gum, Diesel oil, eggplants, 'at Ikea's', new plywood, mountain honey, maracuja ice-cream. I think I like this. With water: high-esters? High pot-still proportions? When olives and carbon dust chime in, that's always a good sign. Litres of Thai soup too, which would involve coconut, coriander, citronella, ginger… Mouth (neat): sweet Jesus, this is pretty perfect (varnish, acetone, dead animals, coconut) but boy is it strong. With water: excellent, honeyed and spicy, fermentary, appropriately varnishy, estery, phenolic… Finish: rather long but let's not exaggerate, this is neither Hampden nor Worthy Park. But frankly, quality's extremely high. Comments: Foursquare is usually a pretty gentle rum. I mean, it's not Bacardi, but it isn't Worthy Park Maximus either (Luca, don't). So we could say this is a firmer Foursquare.
