Sipped neat is the way to meet this one — it's too odd for cola. The nose is the highlight: honey, white flowers, jasmin and a bit of tropical zest, so light that several tasters said they'd never guess rum blind, more like a fortified white wine. The palate falls off, thin and muted, then the finish wakes up with roasted, medicinal, iodine notes. Divisive.
The community says- Honey-floral nose
- Keep in mind: Thin, muted palate

How does Helios Teeda Aged 5 Years 2014 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Gorgeous nose, thin and medicinal palate A lovely, unusual nose that the watery palate doesn't live up to. Fans call it interesting and different; others find it thin, medicinal and poorly integrated.

Review by LukaŽiga
7,5:The nose of this rum is marked by notes of tropical fruit, floral, medicinal, varnish, iodine and honey.I forgot a bit as the tasting was last year, but from the start, the rum is complex and tempting and a bit unusual. Definitely, the strongest are tropical fruits and honey. 7,5:On the palate, it delivers flavors of roasted, medicinal, flowery-Jasmin, honey, and light notes....and of course green tea. 🙂 It is as tempting as on the nose is, so quite gourmand.. 6,7:The finish is medium long, with notes of green tea, honey, fruits, Jasmin that continue on. It has an overall taste that is worth a try. It makes an interesting addition to any rum collection. AND IT IS DIFFERENT.

I use this rum for making yummy rum balls. 4 chocolate muffins 1 raspberry Swiss roll 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 2 tablespoons rum crumb or coconut flour Adjust the rum content to your likings :-)

Worth a try 😉
Review by Johannes
The nose is surprisingly good! I get honey notes from the Rockley 2000, also slight vegetables. On the palate unfortunately noticeably weaker, but actually not bad.
Review by Adrien B
Nose quite floral, white flower, fresh jasmine, lychee, canned white fruit Palate. Less charming than the nose. Too reduced, fleeting, Edit: palate could remind of a basic sake...
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Strangely roasted bitter and medicinal iodine finish which bothers me a lot. Absolutely not a rounded thing and in my opinion not recommendable...
Review by Ayc
Too watery, I wouldn’t necessarily have said it’s a rum blind. Even if without much interest, it’s quite interesting on roasted sesame seed, rather fine and floral.
Review by Jordan Signor
An experienxe per se, but lacking complexity with the specific rice undertones that, if I quite like them, might not be anyone's cup of tea.
Review by Peter Sjoroos
Funky without all the good stuff. Poorly integrated alcohol. Big Big disappointment.
Review by Leroy Gabriel
To try. Interesting to have in your cellar to change things up from time to time.
