One member summed it up as taking "etwas gewöhnlichem" Belize and making it wild — the DOK Hampden finish is the whole story here. You get the soft Belize base of vanilla, caramel and chocolate, then a jolt of glue-and-pineapple ester funk on top. Several tasters loved the creme-brûlée note; a couple felt the two worlds never quite fused, and at 65.7% the heat shows.
The community says- Fantastic nose
- Creme-brûlée note
- But: Hot ABV

Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Belize base with wild Hampden DOK funk Most enjoyed the Belize-meets-Hampden experiment, especially the nose. The catch: the DOK funk can overpower the gentle Belize base, and the high ABV stings for some.

Normally i‘m not a huge fan of belize, but this one is really special. The DOK finish brings in a fantastic note and is a good mix with the typical fruity notes known from Belize. Update: I took home a bottle, to share it with some friends. The nose is still like on the grf, but in mouth it‘s has less impact of the DOK finish. It‘s a pity… The finish is very delicious and a mix of various oak barrel notes paired with fruits and licorice. It last very long and leave an astringend feeling on the tongue. All in all it‘s an amazing Belize, for me a nice daily sipper 🤪🤪

A Belize experiment! According to Dirk Becker for about 4 weeks in a freshly emptied Hampden DOK barrel gefinished!Amazing what this short finish has done to the Belize...the sweetish typical Belize flavors are barely perceptible on the nose, on the palate is more Hampden than Belize present and only in the finish comes through late again the Belize!Somehow the whole thing is for me a way between two worlds, which unfortunately does not pick me up in this case!
Review by Jakob
Classic Belize representative supplemented by a slight lactic acid aroma, which evokes associations with creme brûlée for me. Could this come from the DOK finish? If so, the experiment would have succeeded at this point at the latest, because this note brings a refreshing innovation to the otherwise often little varied profile of the Travellers bottlings - which is in no way to deny the basic quality, but merely to address the somewhat limited flavor variability and diversity.
Review by Frank
It's amazing how strong the DOK finish is on the nose. So here is an aged Belize that delivers muted fruit and above all chocolate and cocoa as well as oak and a light smoky note and then 1 month of intensive maturation in intensive HD, which brings esters and tart pineapple aromas. The %% and the esters stand out a little at first. These and the tart pineapple, lime, sour cherry and green apple flavors then fade into the milder wood and chocolate aromas. Palate: the DOK finish also has an extreme influence here. Dry and astringent, bitter and salty. Goes almost in the direction of iodine. Then has clear acidity from lime and the esters. Now some licorice, tobacco and smoke gain the upper hand. Tobacco, wood, cocoa and light esters on the finish. An interesting attempt...
Review by Leo Krüper
Interesting Belize. I don't find the alcohol perfectly integrated or maybe my expectation for a Belize is a bit too relaxed. The DOK finish definitely makes it unique. Reminds me a lot of a Foursquare today.
Review by Martin Augustin
An interesting Belize. The DOK finish is nicely noticeable on the nose and expands the typical notes of vanilla, caramel, and chocolate with some funk. On the palate, the high ester actually comes through quite well at first before the notes hinted at on the nose manifest in the taste. Offers a long finish. I like it overall very much.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This rum is a good example of a good cask finish and the price to quality is very good. Like the light woody note from start to finish.
Review by Boletus
I wouldn't have thought that this rather young Belize rum would harmonize so well with the influence of the DOK cask. The base profile, characterized by resinous sweetness as well as vanilla and toasty cask aromas, is never overshadowed but instead enriched successfully by the addition of esters in the form of tropical fruits. Occasionally a bit unruly and slightly astringent, but overall quite a nice thing.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Awesome special project Belize finished with Hampden DOK. In your face in every way but I like it!
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un croisement entre un rhum Bélize et un fût de DOK. Le nez n’échappe à l’influence jamaïcaine, à la fois esterisé (colle) et fruité (ananas, banane, orange). Le côté bélizien se manifeste par des arômes de chocolat, des épices (vanille, piment), du caramel, du toffee et de la noix de coco. Le fût apporte de l’intensité à un profil bélizien assez sobre, ce qui est plutôt plaisant. Le rhum conserve sa trame exotique en bouche : les esters dominent dans un premier temps avant de laisser place aux fruits tropicaux et aux agrumes. Ces derniers couvrent le profil, qui tente une percée vers des saveurs plus traditionnelles (chocolat, épices, caramel, sucre brun, noix de coco et boisé rôti). Le profil n’est pas désagréable, mais l’ensemble est moins harmonieux et structuré que le nez. L’alcool demeure bien intégré. La finale n’est pas très longue, elle se veut sèche et astringente avec le fût et les esters qu’il contient. L’amertume se fait ressentir avec le chocolat noir, le chêne et les épices, qui se veulent plus sombres. Un rhum expérimental et pas désagréable, mais la fusion des deux univers pourrait être un peu structurée et fondue dans l’ensemble.
Review by Gregor
Simply amazing on the nose. The Dok finish comes through very nicely on the nose. Paired with strong vanilla pudding. Very complex on the nose. On the palate, however, almost disappointing. Especially because I expected so much from the nose. The taste was more Jamaica than Belize. Almost none of the vanilla and caramel tones remained. Instead, lots of wood.
Review by Oliver
The DOK finish gives the Belize an exciting twist. Successful Spaniard!
Review by Christoph
The nose is HD. The finish Belize. On the palate, the notes wander back and forth at will. On one hand a very tasty rum, on the other hand the finish does a lot with the rum especially in the upper range which you may like or not.
Review by primus
Today we're taking a look at the Belize rum, which was finished in a DOK cask and has been waiting way too long to be opened in the glass bottle. The cask has quite an influence, which you immediately notice in the fruitiness. That works for both the nose and the palate. Pretty sharp, Belize is no longer strongly recognizable. Still tasty though.
Review by Fasen
A DOK finish that brings just the right amount and blends very well with the Belize. Very pleasant tasting.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Tasted at the 11th GRF: Good, but nothing more. Unlike many other Belizes quite alcoholic, the over 65% are very present. Since I like another Belize from the recent past significantly better, which (mind you, at the time) were also available for somewhat smaller money.
Review by Alex Kunath
Heftiger Belize mit einem wunderbar funktionierendem DOK Fass Finish! Well done!
Review by Andi
I'm a fan of the Belize, the sister cask of this bottling. I really like the finish in the dreamy DOK cask.
Review by Anatoli Schlee
Sensational nose. Better than the father, because it's not as "over the top" as in the Hampden. The finish is not disappointing either. For its high cask strength, in my opinion, it's not alcoholic at all. I also like that it wasn't sold out immediately. More or less, combined with the price and good availability, a perfect rum for demanding aficionados.
Review by Michael Schillheim
Tried at the 11th GRF: The bottling could not convince me. Unfortunately, too prominent an alcohol note.
Review by Nivius
This rum is so delicious, I’d love to have my whole cellar full of it. The DOK finish turned something probably rather ordinary into something really awesome. This alcoholic crème brûlée note is insane! I’d love to have my entire cellar full of this rum – whether in iced tea, in cocktails, or just neat, it’s amazing... just unfortunately not cheap... the price tag is probably also why the rum is still available – but sooo tasty!
Review by Alexander Rasch
A good dry rum with nice spice. The DOK cask is rather subtle for me... maybe just the day's form. But the cask influence is very good. I like it. The alcohol is well integrated. Should breathe at least 30 minutes.
Review by Buddudharma
Good Belize, which is further enhanced by the cask. Very good integration of the alcohol.
Review by Jean Louisss
A very good Belize enhanced by a DOK finish. Very indulgent, superb!
Review by Michal S
One of the better rums from Belize, in both aroma and taste candy and chocolate. The alcohol could be better integrated.
Review by Renato
Nice production from Belize with diverse aromas of molasses bringing indulgence over fruity and woody notes.
