Nobilis Beenleigh No. 28 2007
Most tasters land in the same place: a good, fruity Beenleigh that just isn't the top of the 2007 pack. Expect orchard fruit — pear and green apple — with vanilla, molasses, baking spice and a petrol edge. Several note the cask leans slightly bitter and the finish runs short. Give it real time in the glass; a few found it opened up dramatically after resting.

How does Nobilis Beenleigh No. 28 2007 taste?
Aggregated from 57 community reviews.
Fruity, spiced-pear cask-strength Beenleigh Well-liked but rarely the favorite in side-by-sides. Lovely spiced-pear fruit and well-integrated alcohol for 67.2%, though a shortish finish and cask bitterness hold it back.

Review by Martin Švojgr
For me one of the best Beenleight I have tasted so far. There's not quite the typical taste, but the spiced pear flavour is disarming. I'm going to need a bottle of this. I'm really impressed with the fullness and the long warming finish with great integrated alcohol.
Review by Sebastian.W
A lovely rum with notes of apple, dried fruit and different spices. The alcohol is well integrated.
Review by Oliver
Sehr leckerer Australier. Cremig, intensiv, angenehme Süße und perfekt integrierter Alkohol.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This one need stor rest for a bit before the flavours are set free for you to enjoy. Overall very good balance between the ABV, whish is well integrated, and the fruits and roasted wood notes. I really like the noget that comes out after resting as well as in the empty glass. Draws really nice curtains in the glass.
Review by Rare Akuma
Initially I did not have a satisfying experience with this rum. Despite certain hype, the nose displayed a thin, subdued and overly mineralic profile much to my dislike. EDIT: I got a chance to try a second sample of this bottling, this time poured directly from the bottle. A completely different aroma. A thick, oily amalgam of apple, herbs and mint. Really makes me wonder what went wrong with the first sample and warrenting a justificating update. In the mouth classic Beenleigh notes with apples, wood, mixed sugars and spice. Lots of spice. Starts with anise, malt and sweet vanilla before quickly redeveloping in a chili heat with a ginger and juniper zing. The entirety is slightly dirty with a lovely petrolated base. Ends abruptly with similar notes, such as apple, molasses, spice and petrol; but foremost, especially dry.
Review by Werner10
My least favorite of all the Nobilis rums i tried so far. Don't get me wrong, it's still very nice.
Review by Martin Ekrt
Fresh Beenleigh scent at first bite. A fruity mix of vanilla pudding with pear and a hint of cinnamon on top and some medicine. It wouldn't be out of place to have a longer aging time or even just 60%.
Review by xasmx
The nose was pretty closed to me. When tasting got a very nice combination of sour apples and pears which went through to the finish.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Absolut solider Vertreter vom 2007er Beenleigh Jahrgang. Leichte süße, fruchtig. Kiwi, Apfel, Birne, Honig und Ingwer und etwas Benzin, sowie Nougat und Zimt im Abgang. Nur der Alkohol könnte besser integriert sein und der Benzin Geschmack im Abgang weniger dominant ...
