1731 Fine & Rare Travellers Belize

An uncomplicated, mildly spicy Belize rum: fruity, coconut, plenty of caramel and toffee, with a little wood rounding things out. One to try if you want a laid-back, undemanding sipper that gently showcases these sweet, woody notes.

    How does this rum taste?

    • leicht fruchtig, mit einem schönen Aroma
    • unfassbar gut auch für Cocktails
    • süß und mit einer Spur Rauch

    1731 Belize Travellers 7y is all about soft caramel, coconut, and toffee, with pineapple showing up both on the nose and palate. There’s an easy sweetness—“fruchtig, lecker, mild” (Andi)—mingling with wood and spice, and a gentle, warming quality. Some call out touches of nougat and brown sugar, while the coconut pops up regularly in both aroma and taste. @crazyforgoodbooze finds it perfect as an 'easy sipping & mixer ungezuckert unter 50€', and Thorstein notes it's 'sehr runder Rum.' Minor criticisms touch on a certain 'flach' nose or standard-issue finish, but drinkers overall agree it's a reliable, approachable rum with just enough fruit and warmth.

    "Blind tasting 01.02.2024, 1st rum Nose: spicy at first, then sweeter and sweeter, Jamaica? Palate: no, not Jamaica, very light, but not typical Jamaican fruity-earthy; you can drink it, but you don't have to Resolution: Belize? I would never have guessed that. Definitely a good starter."

    "8,1:On the nose, the first impression we have is fruity with an apricots, cherries and very buttery butterscotch, as woodiness is greedy but also seems very old-fashioned, rustic, with a melted, past character. You get the feeling that the tannins have mellowed with age. Aeration develops chocolate notes, dark, round, some really roasted, others more fermented, there is some vanilla and metallic notes with menthol later on. 8::On the palate, the rustic character comes through much less.The woodiness is now typical of American oak, with vanilla, spicy, tobacco, sweet caramel and a touch of coconut milk.With nice rest, there is some gourmet nougat, tannins come out and is a bit metallic, as fruit compote with clove is also there. 7,8:The finish is long, woody, dry and spicy, there are tannins, cocoa, coconut, chocolate and toffee.. Edit:22.12.24-very pleasant sipper, an upgrade to 8,0"

    "Typical Spanish nose with an extremely herbal note. Somehow acidic-fermented, for me extremely disturbing and almost disgusting. On the palate, fortunately, nothing of this to feel, a strong-spicy rum for Spanish conditions, vA at this ABV. However, I lack a little special here, so that my overall result by the Störenfriede nose rather sober."
