Review by Gregor
Nice alcohol strength. Not too much not too little. Very nice after brioche
Review by Jack M
Tasted at UK RumFest but later in the day, so just an initial overall rating given.
Review by Felix Reiber
The half-empty bottle has been sitting in my cupboard for a year now. This waiting time has really done the rum a lot of good. The nose is extremely fruity, sweet and the apple mentioned several times comes across even better than in the freshly opened bottle at the time. It has many similarities with an English Harbour Antigua, which I really like. The 48% burn is less than a year ago. Mirabelle plum, wood and caramel have a positive influence on the palate and the slight floral note makes the whole thing even more interesting. Very tasty.

Review by Erias_X
Überraschend komplex! Zu Anfang eine ganz leichte Minze und Bourbon-Anklang, die dann in Vanille und Karamell umschlagen. Im Abgang kommt dann der Apfel hinzu, der sich im Gaumen festsetzt und für ein tolles Geschmacksbild sorgt. Trotz fehlenden Zuckers und der 48% überraschend mild und angenehm zu trinken. Mein erster Australier und bestimmt nicht mein letzter. Kein Schnapper, aber für Freunde milder, aber nicht gesüßter Rums ein echter Geheimtipp abseits der karibischen Inseln.

Quite pleasant to drink...alcohol could be better integrated.
Review by primus
Mundet. I only knew the Beenleigh 2013 from Australia so far. A similar fruity profile on the nose, I recognized the green apple, although the community probably tends more towards pears. The influence of both casks is noticeable on the palate, very bourbony profile, but you can also recognize the cognac.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
Eucalyptus hits the nose first. Butterscotch and dried figs following. A good mix of herbal and spicy notes. The eucalyptus is still prominent for me on the palate. Very Dry. White grapes also present with a bitter barrel note that I wasn't expecting from the nose. Somewhat nutty. The finish is quite short. Notes of brioche buns and black tea mainly. A nice rum. Not something for those who like the sweeter rums but it's interesting.
Review by Timo Groeger
This Transcontinental Line is very successful. There are lots of herbs on the nose, especially mint. The palate is then also predominantly very herbal and lots of mint. I find such mint-flavored rums really delicious.
Review by Johannes
Very good Beenleigh despite the dilution.
Review by Jarek
For 48%, the alcohol is a bit too dominant. Pleasantly fruity, very reminiscent of a fruit brandy.

Great glass
Review by Richard Krupa
delicate, good, spicy aroma
Review by Werni
I really like the nose,this creamy toffee combined with the minty freshness and subtle spice. On the palate woody,spicy. Bourbon with herbs. Seems a bit thin. After several sips it remains surprisingly long in the mouth, but not much more than wood and bitterness.For this price segment quite a good rum, like almost all of TCRL.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut
"Actually always impressed so far with the cask choices of independent bottles with beenleigh. Super dry and top profile. Fruit and buttery doughy profiles that are well integrated with wood notes of a bourbon cask"
