Real McCoy Single Blended 12-Year

There is very little burn in sipping this and it has a toasted oaky vanilla flavor that comes through. It's not as bold as Doorly's 12 year which has a more dominant copper and aged fruit like flavor. IMO it doesn't have that coppery like flavor of rl seales 10 yr or Doorly's of any kind. It's smooth on the throat for sure and definitely woody w some brown sugar. It's like an unsugared and smoother Pampero Aniversario RE. This has sweet wet oak flavor and pretty sharp tannins that are different from other foursquare offerings, I love it. Update: just tasted this after tasting Don Q Anejo and the toasted cocunut flavor of this rum becomes highly noticeable, smooth and delicious, gotta drink it straight!

I was really happy with this 12 year McCoy. Brought a smokiness I haven't experienced much. Excellent bottle for sure.

this is tremendous. so much barrel and bourbon character and yet the molasses flavor and spice aren't lost. delicately sweet without being cloying. one of the better rums i've had.

Volles Aroma, sehr gut. Echte 12 Jahre, kein Solera. Nicht nachgezuckert, trotzdem angenehm süß.

Another wonderful unadulterated rum from Mr. Seale and his Foursquare Distillery. Rich rum flavors, notes of toffee, oak, molasses and spices, but at 80 proof, none of the alcohol burn. An example of Bajan rum at its best.

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...

This bottle is probably one of the best bottles that's probably readily available. A complex bottle with nice woody and spice notes that just changes in your mouth. Great rum to sip on make into simple cocktails, like a rum old fashioned that plays well with the rum.

Lækker rom. Godt med bundtræk.

Having enjoyed a bottle of The Real McCoy 5 yr rum it was time to open up a bottle of The Real McCoy 12 yr rum. Being produced by Foursquare Distillery I had great expectations and was not disappointed. This rum is smooth, unadulterated and is right up my alley. Not quite a “10” but certainly a 9+ rating. Well done Mr. Seale.

This really good, smooth rum. Not a mixer, drink it neat or with a cube of ice.
