Foursquare Spiced

I’m not much of a spiced rum drinker unless I’m having a rum and coke or certain tiki drinks that call for it but even then my results have been mixed. However, this one doesn’t taste “fake” like so many others so I rather enjoyed it.

I bought this on sale for $12.99 a while back after reading about it here and man I have to say this along with Siesta Key Spiced Rum are my #1/#2 rums to mix with coke. This rum is very smooth and I love the nutmeg that comes through. I am not sure which on I like better but man I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves spiced rum and coke!

Labeling a rum as “spiced”, shouldn’t be a license to steal. I expect more. Especially from a company with Foursquare’s reputation. Cinnamon is not the flavor I expect when buying a spiced rum. Not drinkable neat and didn’t work mixed with coke. Will keep searching for something to mix this with to help me finish the bottle.

I typically avoid spices rums because apparently I am a snob, but I picked this one up because I needed some, and foursquare has never done me wrong. Very strong spice flavors and very sweet, if you are looking for some fall spice flavors in a cocktail this is definitely usable.

I think people would either love it or hate it. I think the spice was a lot if you drink this by itself. With coke and root beer this is wonderful.

Aroma is cinnamon and burnt sugar, the rum comes through, but the taste doesn't back it up, cinnamon all the way and little else

Expected more but there are too many spiced rums out there anyway. Certainly better than Captain Morgan, Admiral Nelson or the rest of those swabs. Not bad. Not good. Not up to par for a fine distillery like Foursquare though.

Also not being fan of spicy Ron this feels balanced and smell aromatic. OK to repeat.

Aroma is gentle with mostly cinnamon.
Taste is smooth with pleasant aftertaste full of christmas spice. Big advantage is no added sugar!

Not a fan of spiced rums, probably can count a couple that I enjoy. This one is pretty good not overwhelming spiced flavor.
