Cadenhead's Travellers SFBT 2005

One taster called the nose "unusual and pretty awesome" — white chocolate, macaroon, real butterscotch — and that's the draw here. This is young, cask-strength Belize column rum: coconut and vanilla up front, then fresh oak, roast and light citrus. At 63.4% it bites and most agree it needs air (or a drop of water); a couple say the heat sits surprisingly well. Classic Travellers, fresh and crisp.

The community says
  • White choc nose

28.11.2017 Meeting up at a friend's house each one bringing a bottle. Pretty surprised that there were 3 Cadenhead's in the pot. Notes Dark in colour. Nose Fresh, wood, roasted, light smoke, coconut, chocolate, polish, citrus. Palate Alcoholic, wood, roasted, faint smoke, citrus, polish, light caramel, coconut, light licorice, medium dry. Finish Medium to long, wood, roasted, tannins, dry, licorice. Extra note. Needs to rest for a very long time before it stops biting.

A really nice Travellers. Has a lot of coconut on the nose, but also vanilla and chocolate are recognizable. On the palate then rather lightly sweetish, lots of chocolate, but also some caramel and coconut.

Travellers 

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.
