Travellers RA Belize Rum MBT 2007
Give it 15-20 minutes in the glass and the near-59% ABV settles right down, letting a big coconut note lead, backed by vanilla, caramel and cream toffee. Several tasters call it a "Kokosbombe" — a coconut bomb. There's ripe dried fruit and warm oak too, though a woody, slightly bitter astringency shows up on the palate. Sips warm and full without much surprise.</</ <parameter name="review">A well-liked Travellers many rate their best from the distillery. Big coconut, toffee and dried fruit, with the high proof nicely integrated after resting. A touch astringent and bitter for some.
The community says- Big coconut note
- Warm dried fruit

After resting for 15-20 minutes this one will settle a lot and reveal a nicely integrated ABV. Fruity with nice light roasted wood and a touch of caramel. Has a nice warm and woody finish with some chocolate. The empty glass reveals even stronger notes. Price to quality is pretty good.

Eine Fülle süßer Noten ohne klebrig zu sein. Solo interessant im Aged Daiquiri super!
Review by Tim
Delicious and round rum, reminds me directly of Cihuatan rum from El Salvador. Harmonizing notes of fruit, caramel, vanilla and nut, complemented by bitter notes like coffee and chocolate. Marzipan, pineapple and coconut are very evident to me. Increased spice and bitterness in the mouth, but caramel/chocolate/coconut again in the finish. Top!
Review by Joachim Guger
Lots of coconut, dried fruit and nice wood ripeness. Very well integrated alcohol, nice and warm and full but not complex.Blind I would guess Foursquare, with a slight Demerara impact.A really good sipper, new territory wins the flavor profile but not.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
Bélize très sympa avec ces marqueurs de fût de bourbon que l’on connaît bien. Très patissier, belle gourmandise.
Review by Oliver
One of the best rums from Belize. A "Spaniard" quite to my taste.
Review by Rodolphe
Classic Belize that works well. Not very complex but very greedy. Very pleasant without taking the head.
Review by lukasdrinkinghabits
Tasted together with the Flensburg 2007. Undiluted, it was clear from the Flensburg why the RA was diluted. Similar on the nose. The RA with the fruitier profile, with subtle citrus notes bringing some freshness. Also in the mouth and finish the rusty wood notes do not predominate, but a nice ripe fruit, plus a very light earthy vegetal tea.The Flensburger is overall a bit spicier and dirtier. The profile of the RA with the better balance and more facets. Have a clear winner.
Review by Thunderbird
The smell suggests something else on the palate... this fruity soft pleasant and intense odor then changes on the palate into the woody astringent with slight bitterness. But very creamy and discreet! The alcohol is relatively well integrated. The finish remains woody... overall very tasty... I'm glad to have gotten another bottle!Just tasted the rum again to the Flensburger! They are almost identical
Review by Nivius
Diese RA-Abfüllung von 2021 habe ich kürzlich im RumDepot entdekt und dann musste Sie auch gleich mit und ich muss sagen, ich habe den Kauf nicht bereut. Für rund 70€ ist dieser Rum ein absoluter Preis-Leistungskiller. Ich habe noch nicht wirklich viel Erfahrung mit Belize - was für mich aber sehr Prominent ist, dass der Geschmack am Gaumen einem 94er NewYarmouth im Abgang sehr nahe kommt und ich absolut auf dieses Profil abfahre ! Dass der Abgang dafür eher kurz ist, halte ich in der Preisklasse für vertretbar.
Review by Leo Krüper
Super seichter Belize mit genügend Power. Hat mir super gefallen.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
klassischer Belize und eine runde Sache. ähnlich wie der auch sehr gute RA Venezuela vom Profil. allerdings auch kein Überflieger meiner Meinung nach, er ist sehr geschmeidig und hat eine schöne und intensive Kokos, Vanille und Toffee Note, mir fehlen die sonst für Belize so typischen Ananas Noten etwas und er ist mir persönlich einen Hauch zu zu adstringierend und etwas zu bitter für eine absolute top Bewertung. Alkohol könnte ein Tick besser integriert sein, verstehe nicht ganz warum der verdünnt wurde... Dennoch ein spitze Rum zum fairen Kurs mit dem man nichts falsch machen kann!🇧🇿👌
Review by Christian Rudt
Gehaltvoller, sehr runder Belize. Auch hier viel Kokos. Etwas weniger Alkohol dadurch etwas gefälliger. Vanille, Kakao, sehr schöner Rum ohne Überraschungen
Review by Lukas Jäger
Online-Tasting beim Rum-Depot: Kokosbombe! Wer da keine Kokosnuss schmeckt, hat keinen Geschmack. Richtig leckeres Zeug, vielleicht der beste Travellers bisher und damit auf jeden Fall der beste Rum im spanischen Stil, wie von Dominik erwähnt geht der schon sehr in den britischen über. Sehr süß, aber natürlich ungesüßt und schön eingebunden.
Review by DaveLamb
intense; so similar to Foursquare good high-proof Travellers, but also need time to accept the astringent, time(bottle or glass) are really needed to reduce the alcohol and open up flavor I am willing to repurchase for occasional sipping.
Review by SaibotZtar
Absolute Überraschung!! Schöne Süße Alkohol gut eingebunden . Herrlicher Duft und Geschmack von Cocos Dunkle Schoko und etwas Pflaume ...sehr komplex ...hätte ich nicht gedacht!! Super zu dem Kurs!
Review by Johannes
Alkohol könnte besser integriert sein, aber insgesamt ein sehr guter Belize!
Review by Christoph H.
Der Belize erinnert mich sehr an den C.A.C.D Cognac Cask. Er braucht etwas länger um richtig aufzumachen, nach ca einer Stunde ist das insgesamt ein sehr angenehmes Zusammenspiel. In der Nase mit angenehmen würzigen, holzigen süßen Noten. Im Gaumen sehr süß und gefällig, der Alkohol ist nach längerer Verweildauer im Glas gut eingebunden. Die Parallelen zu DDL in der Nase fehlen mir, ich finde man merkt sehr schnell, dass man es hier mit einem Spanier zu tun hat. Ein angenehmer easy sipper 👍
Review by Jonas Köhler
Recht Scharf durch höheren alkoholgehalt, süßlivh und weniger fruchtig, würzige karamellnote

Relaxed rum with a pronounced coconut note and lots of toffee, but also a certain astringency and bitterness. Very strong for a Spanish style rum. I liked very much
