Rum Shark Travellers Travellers (Pineau Finish) 2006

The Pineau finish is the twist here: it layers grape must, raisins and a winey tannin over a classic dark Belize base of chocolate, coffee, roasted nuts and spicy oak. Most tasters find it rich and warming with the 64% well tucked in, though one flagged a "sour taste due to pineau." A few felt the finish sits slightly off-balance rather than seamless.

8.3/10

8,2:On the nose, the first impression we get are yellow fruits, citrus and some roastedness. We find peaches, oranges, mandarine. When aired a bit, it turns to vegetal/herbal notes. The molasses become caramelized, as the sugar is burnt, the wood is spicy, filled with some wine tannins, there is some chocolate and after some rest, earthy, menthol is obvious after a while. 8,4:On the palate, the attack is fruity and spicy, oily, as we could taste some yellow, tropical fruits and citrus. The wood is roasted and dry, there are coffee and chocolate, nuts. We taste wine, out of it dried fruits. The molasses becomes caramelized after resting and the wood is resinous, there are vegetal notes and, of course, menthol. 8,4:The finish is long, woody, still resinous, dry, there are chocolate, roasted nuts, coffee. The fruits are dried and yellow. Very nice Belizean rum🙂....

Vůně opět příjemná, alkohol integrován mnohem lépe než u cognac bráchy, neštípe, závěr dlouhý a přijemný prohřeje až do bříška :-) příjemné belize, které si vždycky rád naleju, byť jsou od kluků z rums sharku povedenjší lahve :-)
