Mezan Travellers Belize 2008
Sipped neat is where this Travellers 13-year lives: chocolate-covered marzipan and caramel up front, with a pencil-shaving woodiness sitting quietly underneath. A few minutes open it up to dark chocolate wrapped around orange zest. At 46% the body reads a little diluted mid-palate — one taster wanted more punch — but the dry sweetness and spice keep it interesting to the end.
The community says- Marzipan chocolate
- Dry, not sugary
- Keep in mind: Thin mid-palate

How does Mezan Travellers Belize 2008 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Chocolate-caramel sipper, nose beats the palate Well-liked as an unpretentious after-dinner sipper — chocolate and caramel win people over. The recurring gripe: the palate feels thinner than the nose promises.

Review by Morgan Garet
Most helpful positive review
As soon as you open the bottle, you sense the sweetness of chocolate-covered marzipan, followed by caramel, with a discreet woody note. Dark chocolate enrobes orange zest after a few minutes. On the palate, the attack is soft with caramel and chocolate, spices spice things up, citrus fruits are still present but this time yellow lemon takes pride of place. A slight tannic edge, not unpleasant, adds a hint of bitterness. Medium-long finish on caramel and lemon zest. Pleasantly surprised by this unpretentious bottle, a fairly mild but very interesting rum.

A rum tasted at the Lucerne Gin and Rum Festival in 2024. A well-balanced nose with varnished wood, tropical fruit, a pastry side and a vegetal side too. The palate is clearly in the background, diluted, with an interesting dark chocolate and pencil lead side. The finish is short, on spices and cask. A rum with a fine nose, but too diluted.
Review by Timo Groeger
Hit 2 out of 2, this one is also a great sipper exactly to my liking. Great, pleasant sweetness, lots of chocolate, caramel, and vanilla, on the palate you also get barrel/wood notes. Awesome.

Stable drinking strength Belize!
Review by Mc Pirate
Auburn color, pencil sharpener nose, pencil lead certainly the wood. Mouth on the wood without being disturbing, you find the pencil lead and a quite pleasant balance! Sweet finish on caramel.
Review by Happy Oner
Great chocolate Belize, price-performance amazing, lower proof but fits beautifully
