Review by Schnapsschuesse
Messeverkostung, daher knapper: Trockner in der Nase als der Ruby, würziger und insgesamt spannender und runder. Geschmacklich bleibt irgendwas mit salzigem Karamell, Wein und fruchtiger Würze. Gefällt mir deutlich besser als die Portvariante, ist was die Süße angeht genau meine Ecke (wenn süß).
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Much rounder and more harmonious than the Ruby Port edition, although a little too sweet for me, but that's the nature of 10y old tawny port. A nice alternative for sweet rum drinkers and a real novelty in the rum world.
Review by BTHHo 🥃
A new way of aromatizing here, and selected port wine is married with aged rum, in this case an 8-year-old Panama rum. The taste has a pleasant oily texture and umami notes of wood and earthy colors and orange peel. Long lasting and rich aftertaste. A successful combination of port and rum and definitely worth a try.
Review by Johannes
Ganz schön süß . Aber wer auf Portwein steht, könnte den auch mögen.
Review by Werner10
This one is sweeter than the Ruby. It's also smoother and more rounded. I also feel that the port finish is more noticable. Nice
Review by Gregor
I'm Geruch sehr flach. Im Geschmack starker Portwein Einfluß. Ansonsten leider wenig destillateigengeschmack
Review by cigares
Dégustation Bellamy. Un rhum foncé avec un nez marqué par du bois de santal, du porto rouge et un coté bien fruité. La bouche est douce avec des fruits (pommes au four), un côté poivré mais aussi amer. La finale est courte sur le bois et le porto. Un rhum qui donne une forte impression de sucrosité, le Porto est très présent mais bien intégré. Intéressant et bien fait mais il manque de tout, profondeur et largeur des arômes, longueur et caractère.
Review by Ginger & Fred
Sehr rund, sehr "Tawny", flacht im Mund allerdings sehr schnell ab, doch jeder Schluck ist ein Genuss! Muss im Glas eine Weile atmen bevor er sich entfaltet. Ist für mich ein tolles Beispiel dafür, dass Rum oft Zeit braucht. Nicht zu süß, sehr lecker. Lohnt sich sehr.

#4441 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Notes. Something went wrong here as well. Fruity with toffee and spices. Warm and spicy on the palate but out of balance.
Review by Mirco
Leider nicht mein Fall. Könnte bei Süssrumliebhaber Anklang finden. Sample aus dem RumX Gewinnspiel. Besten Dank an Philipp & Perola!!

Trochu menší nuda, než Ruby, ale zase přenechávám manželce. Nasládlé takové nic.

Very sweet ... not really what I would call delicious.
Review by Leo Krüper
Aromatisierter Rum für Zuckerfreunde. Schmeckt ganz gut.
Review by DomM
Bellamy‘s Tawny vs. Ruby. Tawny very heavy on the Port notes on the nose. Not much else. Ruby is much better balanced with some chocolate and roasted notes of the rum coming through - at least I assume this is attributable to the rum used. On the palate: Tawny: this tastes like Port. Only the texture is not quite as thick as a Port. Can’t detect any influence of the rum tbh. Very sweet. Ruby: Much better. Less sweet and wine dominated. Feels a bit thin, but delivers a nice evolution with way more complexity than the Tawny.
