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.

- Crisp oak

Aggregated from 10 community reviews.
Young, crisp cask-strength Belize, coconut nose Well-liked as a fresh, crisp Travellers with a great nose. The catch is the heat — several say it's still young and bites hard, needing time to settle.

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.

Another Cadenhead review On the nose: Coconut, vanilla. Toasted. Light citrus, light woody notes. Taste: Alcoholic. Vanilla, coconut, caramel. Toasted. Light woody notes. Finish: Light woody notes, coconut, light vanilla. Roasted. Medium finish. Too alcoholic for my liking. In overall, sweet and light notes.
Review by Timo Groeger
Ein wirklich netter Travellers. Hat viel Kokosnuss in der Nase, ebenso sind aber auch Vanille und Schokolade erkennbar. Am Gaumen dann auch eher leicht süßlich, viel Schokolade, aber auch etwas Karamell und Kokosnuss.
Review by Johannes
Nr3: Schmeckt nach fs. Müsste auch längere tropische Lagerung haben. Da gibt es mehrere zur Auswahl. 20841?
Review by Jakob
Noch etwas jugendlicher Belize Rum mit ungestümer Kraft im Abgang. Der Alkohol ist präsent, aber nicht störend, einzig noch nicht vollends im geschmacklichen Spektrum eingebunden. Neben frischem Eichenholz, leichten Röstnoten, Karamell und dunkler Schokolade zeigen sich auch frische zitrische und getrocknete Früchte. Klassisches Travellers-Profil, frisch, knackig - gefällt mir.
Review by Nico Köppe
Sehr süffiger Vertreter aus dem Travellers Hause, Alkohol ist recht gut eingebettet. Man merkt die 63,4% nicht. Ein cooler Sipper den ich lange Zeit keine Beachtung geschenkt habe.
Review by Henry Davies
I like the nose a lot, white chocolate and sweet treats with macaroon and real butterscotch. Unusual and pretty awesome. The mouth is a little less memorable, flat with milk chocolate and some brash spice around the edge but it has different levels and with time uncover more and more elements that work and pop together. The finish brings expresso and spice with a young woody influence. Overall it’s an interesting and complex rum. Solid and keen to try more Travellers
