At the beginning mostly alcohol, chemical and fresh/grassy notes. Given the ABV (63,4%) it most definitely needs some air. Over time the sweet, fruity notes develop more and more. The alcohol still gives a lot of heat, but it’s way better compared to the first half hour. The finish is mostly herbal/woody and lasts for quite a while.
What a lovely rum and the price tag is also very good compared to the quality. The nose is lightly woody with a bit of smoke and fruits and vanilla. There is also light herbs and medicinal notes The palate is wonderfully fruity with wood, vanilla and honey as well as a light cocoa note. The finish is medium to long and has wood, vanilla and fruits.
Very closed nose at first. Wood and apples. Taste: more oak wood (American Oak/Pine wood). Bourbon. Pear.. a lot of pear. Some ripe peaches too. A nice sweetness. Dry and bitter. The cask is very dominant, but that's okay. This one needs time in the glass. I like the balance between sweetness, fruits and cask. Some pepper or ginger spiciness. Tasty. Probably one of the better Beenleighs I've had
Nose rather alcoholic, this calms down with the opening but remains lively (requires a lot of opening), it is fresh but the integration of the alcohol is not really optimal. We are on white fruit, honey of flowers. It is good but I would not buy a bottle
