Travellers S.B.S Belize (Rum Depot) 2014
Most drinkers land in the same place: a good, dry cask-strength Belize that rewards a few drops of water. Roasted wood, dark chocolate, caramel and coconut, with a peppery smoke running through — and at 67.2% it needs taming before the spice and mokka open up. Several tasters call it solid rather than thrilling; a couple find the fruit missing.
The community says- Rich dark chocolate
- Long warming finish
- But: Hot neat

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Relativ verhaltene Nase, geschmacklich Alkohol ganz gut eingebunden aber auch Recht eindimensional, nicht sonderlich Komplex und mir fehlt hier vor allem jegliche Frucht. Die sonst so typische Ananas Note ist hier quasi nicht vorhanden. Stattdessen hauptsächlich nussig, würzig, rauchig und leicht bitter nach kräftigem Mokka und Haselnüssen sowie gesalzenem Karamell. Alles in allem aber ein durchaus solider Cask Strength Belize zu einem fairen Kurs!
Review by Christian Rudt
In der Nase erstmal deutlich alkoholisch, am Gaumen dann zugänglicherer Belize. Mit acht Jahren fehlt ihm noch deutlich die Kraft wie ihn z.b. ein FRC 2006 ausstrahlt. Viel Karamell, Kokosnuss, Würze, es ist typisch Belize. Guter Rum aber für mich auch ein bisschen langweilig.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Lecker, aber eindimensional. Nase sehr verhalten, aber auch überraschen würzig. Am Gaumen bestätigt sich dieser Eindruck, dazu einiges an Holz und eine interessante Rauchigkeit. Leider ist der Alkohol recht prägnant und überdeckt damit wohlmöglich andere zurückhaltendere Aromen. Dazu wie Kokosnuss und Karamell und eine Spur Vanille, wie wohl typisch für Travellers. Angenehmer Sipper aus Belize, aber sonst auch kein Highlight!
Review by Christoph
Die Schokolade bleibt super lange am Gaumen und ist extrem kräftig aber trotzdem angenehm da der Alkohol sehr gut eingebunden ist. In der Nase metallisch (Reste von gespitzten Bleistift) und verkohlter Speck.
Review by Mentalo
Alkohol ist gut integriert. Karamell, etwas Frucht, viel Schokolade und Holz. Aber leider auch ne Rauchnote, die mich stört.
Review by Rumpalumpa
An der Nase hat er sich erst mit etwas Wasser richtig geöffnet. Alkoholisch, Holz, sowohl wie frisch geschnitten als auch leicht rauchig. Am Gaumen dann natürlich deutlich kräftiger mit viel trockener Würze.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Once again you get a lot for your money with this release. Fruity with roasted/smoky wood notes and light spices. I like the warmth on the palate as well as the light caramel and wood notes.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Im Blind Tasting (4 Rums aus Belize) Dritter. Schwächste Nase, aber am Gaumen schon sehr kräftig.
Review by Andi
Das war meine erste Fassstärke. Finde den Belize immer noch wunderbar zum sippen, schöne fruchtige, süßliche Noten mit Karamell, Holz. Kokosnuss kommt am Ende auch durch.
Review by DomM
Nice Travellers. Has a faint smokiness towards the end alongside the more common notes you would except. Alcohol is quite present on the nose and throughout.
Review by Oliver
Toller, intensiver Rum aus Belize. Röstig, schokoladig und kraftvoll.
