CDI Travellers Belize 2005

Sip this one neat and let the 66.2% breathe — most people are surprised how soft it drinks for the strength. Expect cocoa, coffee and vanilla up front with that Belize coconut note running through, plus a warm nutty, roasted-wood side. One taster called it grilled pineapple in cask strength. A couple of drops of water tames the sharper edge some find on the palate.

The community says
  • Well-integrated alcohol
  • Cocoa and coconut

still the holy grail for me when it comes to Belize. 🇧🇿🙏 Grilled pineapple to drink at cask strength, a poem :) 🍍🔥 buttery and smooth despite 66% and an endlessly brilliant finish, incidentally also the rum that finally brought me to cask strength and co 6 years ago at Perola :D very very cool stuff, very straightforward and sexy 🤤😍🇧🇿🍍👌🏽

This is a tasting set from 2022 where we had a lot of fun around the table. Another very nice CDI. Fruity and nicely balanced in the spices and roasted wood. The empty glass is really nice and fruity and the coconut stands out even more.

Now come the better rums. This CDI is quite okay, nose very sweetish, with vanilla and chocolate, but also some wood and coffee. On the palate slightly sweetish, but above all very sharp-edged and quite alcoholic.

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.
