Perola Bellamy's Reserve Guyana Cask Finish
The mint is the twist here — a cooling herbal streak that flickers through an otherwise thick, sweet pour. Around it sit chocolate, marzipan, vanilla and raisin, soft at 40% and easy to drink. Beginners and sweet-rum lovers get the most out of it; several members enjoy the glass but flag the sweetness for flattening the aromas. One taster called it the most complex nose of a six-bottle lineup.

- Soft and easy

How does Perola Bellamy's Reserve Guyana Cask Finish taste?
Aggregated from 11 community reviews.
Sweet, chocolatey sipper with a minty streak Liked as an easy sweet sipper, docked for the same reason: the sugar blurs the detail. A few members would reach for an El Dorado instead.

Review by Galli33
Very delicious, sweetened Rum! Great for beginners, with a very bad value for money ratio. In the nose some notes of honey, marzipan, vanilla, oak, toasted. Lovely for sweet-rum lovers. In the mouth the sweetness continues with some notes of marzipan, fruitcake, vanilla, oak (barrel), toasted. The finish is medium long and sweet with some tastes of vanilla and oak.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Soweit die komplexeste Nase der Fünf und dabei sehr gefällig. Mir fehlt der Vergleich zu Enmore Produkten generell, aber hier hat's insgesamt mehr Charakter und Tiefe. Im Mund äußert sich das mit einer Kräuternote und herberem Abgang als die anderen. Steht der fruchtigen Basis sehr gut - schlägt aber auch preislich über die Stränge.

Sehr Süss mild, Vanille, leicht
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Had a Bellamy's Reserve tasting yesterday and it was kind of a disappointment to say the least. Here's the second of the six. Not a bad rum if you're looking for Guyana sweetness, but you'd be better off with an El Dorado 15 or 21 years old, which are both better and cheaper. Price to quality is not good.
