Aroma visualization from community tastings
The Duchess Travellers Belize 15 2006
"The nose is better than the palate" is the refrain here. Several tasters loved the smell — coconut, vanilla, creme brulee, even a cognac-like fruitiness — then found the 63.7% alcohol crashing over everything on the tongue. Underneath is cocoa, chocolate, light wood and a touch of varnish. A 15-year Travellers column-still rum that promises more than it lands.
The community says- Fruity, inviting nose
- Cocoa and vanilla
- But: Very hot palate

How does The Duchess Travellers Belize 15 2006 taste?
Aggregated from 29 community reviews.
Great nose, hot and alcohol-heavy palate Lovely nose, hot palate. Most agree the aroma outshines the taste, where the cask-strength alcohol tends to bulldoze the cocoa and vanilla underneath.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 6 Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Fresh light wood, fruits, light orange, light nutts, faint varnish, light sugarcane. Palate Round, balanced, light varnish, light wood, faint smoke, sugarcane, light coconut. Finish Medium long, fresh, light wood, sugarcane, faint citrus. Extra note. Needs time to release all its flavours.
Review by Beau de Vries
Surprising reminds me loads of an Armagnac/Cognac smelling it. Taste was good nothing crazy just a good rum!
Review by Thunderbird
Die Belize-Rum sind für mich immer wie eine Wundertüte…man weiß nie genau was man bekommt! In diesem Falle nichts Besonderes. Ist die Nase noch angenehm voller Kokosnuss, Creme Brulee und Vanille, verliert er am Gaumen völlig. Der Alkohol überstrahlt fast alle Aromen…auch nach einer längeren Verweildauer passiert nicht wirklich etwas. Maximal Holz, Piment und etwas zu lang gezogener Schwarztee sind erkennbar, der Abgang ist relativ kurz und genauso unspektakulär
Review by John Coffey
I like the nose a lot but it hits hard in the mouth I think.
Review by Alex1981
Fruity and balanced nose, that evolves into a rather pungent and alcohol taste. Not well integrated and a bit disappointing because of the difference in nose and tongue. Finish rather ahort and not well integrated alcohol.
Review by Serge
Like many Belize rums, this one can only scratch the 8. Cocoa, vanilla, wood with caramelized cream are there. But as is often the case, it lacks a certain creaminess. Good, but nothing more.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Nicht schlecht, aber der Alkohol ist am Gaumen sehr präsent.
