Rum Shark Travellers The Great Blue Hole (Edition Zero) Era of Discovery

Surprisingly fruity for a Belize rum — one member said blind he'd never guess the origin. Expect coconut, dried apricot and green apple on the nose, then chocolate, vanilla, coconut and wood on a sweet-ish, spicy palate. The 65.5% cask strength shows: the alcohol pokes through, and several tasters recommend giving it 20 minutes in the glass to settle.

The community says
  • Fruity for Belize
  • Chocolate and coconut
  • But: Alcohol pokes through

Fruity, chocolatey cask-strength Belize sipper Well-liked as a fruity, chocolatey Travellers at full proof. A couple find it slightly unbalanced and sharp, and the heat is real — let it breathe before judging.

7.6/10

Finally made it to Rum House in Prague. Unfortunately, the Caroni Hangar and the No Smoking were already long gone. Well, I treated myself to some unknown ones and had good conversations with Milan... Nose: at first the alcohol stands out a bit, then a fruity mix of coconut, green apple and apricot comes through. A pleasant smoky note and some caramel add on. 7.6 Palate: strong, fruity, sweet, spicy, chocolaty. Coconut with blackberry and cherry, vanilla and wood. Typical Belize. Overall a bit unbalanced. The high ABV fits quite well though. 7.6 Not outstanding, but a well-drinkable, typical Belize representative.

Travellers 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 250 Rums

Travellers is the rum that put Belize on the map. It began in 1953 as a bar in Belize City, grew into a family distillery under the Perdomo name, and today is synonymous with Belize rum. Its molasses spirit comes off a hurricane-proofed column still in three different marques, and a deep stock of aged casks has made it a quiet favourite of independent bottlers around the world.
