Real McCoy Single Blended 12-Year

So light and easy to drink, very smooth, no additives, sugar, caramel etc. Perfect for sipping

Scuttle me if this not be a truly delightful rum! She smells sweet, like a lot of brown sugar, but there also be a fair amount of oak, a bit of caramel, and wee tiny bit of chocolate hidin' below deck. As for taste, she be RICH... soft and silky smooth, but not as sweet as she smells. The bourbon comes through first, and then a bit of caramel that quickly turns into chocolate and fruits together - all even-Steven like. Not sweet, not bitter, but good together - like cannons and balls. The finish be a little on the peppery side with almost zero burn goin' down the hatch. Aye, this be a smooth and flavorful rum from start to finish. If you find yourself in a port servin' this, you owe it to yourself to try some while on shore leave. Doctor's orders...

I’ve been procrastinating with buying a bottle of this rum for a while on account of its 40% ABV.

I’ve been disappointed with most offerings at 40% lately but this bottle is incredible.

Eminently sippable, this rum is easy to drink, offers a well rounded profile and is quickly becoming one of my favorite rums.

As with all Foursquare offerings, there are no additives, so the fact that this is so smooth is unexpected. I’ve spent a lot of time with Foursquare ECS bottles this last year and they are amazing, but sometimes they are just too much for me and I have to walk away for a bit.

This RMC 12 offers all the flavor of an ECS bottling, albeit a bit less complex and far easier to drink.

I made mojitos with it last night and everyone agreed it was the best they had ever had!

Nose: Molasses and brown sugar, a hint of caramel

Palate: sweet but not cloying. Notes of vanilla, honey and creme broulee.

Finish: long honey and vanilla with a mild burn, a hint of cinnamon.

Overall, this will become a staple in my cabinet from now on, especially at 33 euros a bottle!

Very smooth, but not in an overly sugary way. Never had foursquare, and this might be the closest I'll come for a while!

Smagt til romhattens romfestival 2019, den får en 6’er.

A very bourbony rum where I have problems tasting anything else (but I admit my palate may not be that developed). A sipper still, no sugar, no offense, but not that memorable to me at this stage.

We can all have our preferences, but at the end of the day, sometimes you just need one that can "do it all". And this one is "the guy". A great benchmark to compare other rums to, even if its to elevate your favorite.

Nose - Caramel, Coffee, Earthy
Palate - Vanilla, Nutmeg, Smoke

Great mouthfeel. Very clean finish.

This shows how complex an unadulterated rum can be. It also does this while remaining accessible to a "beginning sipper". Real McCoy can be used to add some class to your cocktails but it really shines sipped neat. There's plenty of caramel, leather, vanilla, a bit of barrel char, some fresh tobacco and a hint of coconut. Wonderful stuff.

This is a good sipping rum with lots of vanilla and oak.

Picked this up after hearing great things about Foursquare, I'm glad I did.

Nose: I get brown sugar and banana
Taste: Chocolate, oak, a little pepper
