TCRL Beenleigh Australia #35 2015
Sip this one neat — it's built for a tasting glass, not cola. Expect pepper and clove up front, then yellow fruit (mirabelle, pear, apricot), vanilla and young oak, with a faint gluey, petrol edge that marks it as Beenleigh. Several tasters call it a "great sipping rum," a bit young and rough-edged, but genuinely interesting in its own quirky way.

The look inside the bottle
How does TCRL Beenleigh Australia #35 2015 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Young, spicy pot-still sipper with fruit and oak Well-liked as an unusual, spice-forward Beenleigh at honest strength. The recurring catch: the palate can read thin and watery, less exciting than the lively nose promises.

Fruity nose, light black tea finish. Quite tasty 😀

Good rum, but I don't think I would buy it. Still, it remains a simple and satisfying rum.
Review by cigares
Australia Advent Calendar 2025 (3). A very soft nose, almost cloying, quite weak. Overripe yellow fruits and a slight volatile note (light vinegar), vanilla wood. An interesting and spicy nose but relatively simple. The entry on the palate is relatively lively and alcoholic (apple brandy). The ripe yellow fruits and spices then rise, supported by the vanilla wood. The finish is short even though the vanilla wood lingers for a long time.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#5037 08.01.2025 Enjoying a few samples at home. Nose Light wood, light roasted, light tar, fruits, light anise, light berries, faint rubber, faint nutts. Palate Round, light wood, light berries, anise, light salt, faint apple, cinnamon, faint tar, light nutts, light chocolate. Finish Medium to long, wood, fruits, light apple, spice, light chocolate, faint salt. The empty glass has stronger Apple, light mint, light anise and light rubber.
Review by Timo Groeger
Advent calendar Australia The Dunderhut door 3. The nose I found quite flat, some wood and vanilla as well as a slight sweetness were recognizable. On the palate then better, many herbs, some mint and chocolate on the finish.
Review by Eric Frechin
Friendly rum, a bit of complexity, attack on spices (pepper, mace, cloves) and evolution on sweetness (caramel and yellow fruits), the whole is a bit buttery and fatty. Short-medium finish and sweetness of a light woody caramel.
Review by w00tAN
Wow what a great rum. On the nose an exciting floral note that later becomes herbal and minty in the mouth. Generally very rich and exciting with many facets and the 48% ABV fits perfectly together. Delicious! Second try with the Dunderhut advent calendar. Impression definitely confirmed.
Review by Righrum
Dunderhut's Australia Advent Calendar #3 This is likely produced by Beenleigh, the profile is quite clear and unmistakeable with pear, grapefruit and some kind of gluey esters. The abv is really low even if alcool bite on the mouth is a bit too strong
Review by TheJackDrop
"Very spicy and peppery, a little short finish, but unique flavors. Ultra reasonable price! Too bad this time it's empty. .. In summary, my tasting notes: Nose: Clove, pepper On the palate: Clove, young wood, pepper Finish: Young wood, spicy, mellow".
Review by Skyfly
Artur's Advent calendar Australia #3: Primarily wood and caramel from nose to finish. On the nose still some baked banana and dried fruits. On the palate less fruity, same on the finish. Tastes a bit diluted again.
Review by Vincent D
A rather well-behaved rum with a nose driven by gourmand notes: vanilla and caramel at the top. A nice woody note too. A hint of fruit. On the palate, it's initially very spicy. The rum is oily. More fruit, notably pear, returns to the nose. The finish is woody and slightly bitter, citrus-like. Nice but not crazy. Great value for money nonetheless.
Review by Montana
The smell is slightly sweet, with adhesive parts and wood, quite heavy and slightly dirty, very aromatic.The taste is spicy, oily, slightly fruity and woody, also somewhat alcoholic. A whole own delicious rum from Down Under.
Review by mto75
From Artur's calendar... although the color is rather dark, it feels rather young, a bit rough, young barrel, apple cider / Calvados (?), caramel... on the palate somewhat watery and sharp-edged at the same time (especially in the finish). Doesn't convince me 100%.
Review by Frank
A fresh floral-fruity scent pours into the nose. Currant and cherry, also something exotic tropical. And a slight almond note. Pleasantly sweet, slightly fruity. But by no means as fruity fresh as the nose. It goes ehr in the direction of spicy, caramelized, woody. The rum still gets a nice chamomile-black tea note.Pleases me well.
Review by Rare Akuma
Interesting profile for Beenleigh. On the nose you get the usual apples and tea, this time with some pineapple and coconut gratings. It’s quite woody and lightly dirty, leaning towards petrol. Lovely scent. The taste is less eventful than the nose would suggest. It’s lightly spiced, but apples, pears and chamomile tea overwhelm the wood and petrol, and it turns quite flat as a result. Excellent entry-level sipper and you get good value for your money.
Review by Thomas Renoud
Great sipping rum like all TCRL line.
Review by Daniel
White by intensity, sweetness and elegance on the nose to capture the attention of the aficionado. Both thumbs up👍🏻 👍🏻 After initial fruit sweetness, grain gains the upper hand. Reminiscent of whiskey now. Then it gets spicier.Alcohol is great presence all the time and warms with irrepressible staying power, really unusual for 48%.Recommended purchase, although there is a slight drop in performance on the palate. Top rum.
Review by Jakob
Australia Advent calendar from Artur: Positive surprise. Pleasant mix of dried fruits, mango, peach, lemon peel and the typical intense spice and wood aroma. Thanks to an appealing sweetness of caramel and chocolate, the overall impression is pleasantly complex and not lacking balance. Nice release with fitting drinking strength.
Review by Dave
Super weird. But delicious in its own weird way.

Review by Henry Davies
A fairly robust and alcoholic nose. The body and taste is a bit more unusual, plum and spice with some sandalwood and quite an intense mouth. The finish is smooth and light with spice to the end and after. It’s not a bad rum and unusual enough to be interesting but too spicy and lacking in depth to be great. A left field four year old rum
Review by Ian Gilman
My mouth and brain are a little fried after tasting 4 rums before this, but it delicious. Having some trouble pulling out what’s unique about this, but it is different and will definitely try again when given a chance.

Young but great release from Beenleigh distillery
Review by Donald Shepherd
New favourite I reckon. Light but with a kick, fruit and goodness.
Review by Richard Krupa
All the transks are super, unexpectedly distinctly sweet at the start.

Ok rum, nothing special, a little fruit with wood and pepper.
