Romdeluxe Beenleigh Collectors Series No. 17 2023
Not the fruity Australian some expect — this Beenleigh leans chocolatey and roasted, with light toasted oak, caramel and a cherry note underneath. Several tasters compare it to Foursquare: dry, well-built, more woody than tropical. At 64.4% it runs hot, and the alcohol isn't fully tucked in — a few drops of water round off the sharp edges. Oily body, long warm finish.
The community says- Chocolate & oak
- Long oily finish
- But: Hot at full proof

Dry, chocolatey Beenleigh with a hot edge Well-liked as a dry, Foursquare-style pour, but the recurring gripe is real: the high proof reads sharp and could sit better. Water helps.

#4251 16.09.2023 Whisky N Rum Show 2023. This was a nice surprise especially when looking at the price tag. A well rounded rum with nice fruity notes and well balanced light roasted wood. Oily on the palate and a long warm finish. I picked up some marzipan in the empty glass.

Ein Mitbringsel von der Pueblo del Ron Nürnberg 2024. Im ersten Moment erinnert er mich ein wenig an Foursquare. Aber leider finde ich, dass der Alkohol nicht wirklich gut eingebunden ist. Für mich ist er zu scharfkantig und nicht ausgewogen. Mit ein wenig Wasser wird er zwar gefälliger, kann aber auch hier nicht ganz überzeugen leider.
Review by BTHHo 🥃
Then the collection was expanded with a pleasant no. 17 - definitely worth tasting 😋👍
Review by Johannes
Not as fruity as the other Australians. Slightly less complex, more chocolaty, goes more in the direction of Foursquare. Alcohol could be better integrated.

Too spirity But very good
