Cane Island Beenleigh Australia

Floral, tart notes, but not too dominant, tending a little towards agricole. Quite peppery spice alongside the vegetal notes. Therefore not my preferred type of rum overall, but an experience for once

A rum that I find really original and quite complex. For the nose, make a first pass, then let it air to make a second pass which will let you pass other nuance. A rather fruity rum with a vegetable roundness that I like very much

To be honest, I would have mistaken this for a Bourbon, if I hadn't known it's a rum. Probably the pot still and low cut points could be a reason for this. Judged on it's own, this is a rather boring spirit to me. The finish is a bit weak. Nose: is this rum? Blind, I'd have thought that it would be a bourbon. A bit of orange, flowers, clove, maybe a hint of vanilla. Later also peach on syrup. Taste: a bit of glue, but mainly white oak, clove, pepper, orange zest, peach, vanilla, dough. Finish: short and a bit weak, mainly lingering on the spice and orange.

Für nur 43% und nur 4y alt überraschend intensiv. Für knapp 30€ auch sehr fair. Toller Einstieg für Australien! Kirsche, Honig und Rosenwasser mit etwas Vanille. Definitiv ein toller bezahlbarer Rum, bei den man wenig falsch machen kann.

Sample no.5 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2022. Nose: Tequila. That is all I get. Palate: Not tequila?? Well maybe a little but more of an anise and fruity mixture with some barrel in the end. Maybe it is the pot still or maybe the fact that this rum is only 4yo but the palate is very sharp and not my cup of tea :)

Nothing particularly wrong here, just really boring. Way too short inside a cask. And the abv does not help. We have seen better Independent beenleighs for that price. Shame! I see the quality that they can deliver elsewhere....

Rather something to mix, not to enjoy purely. But for mixing at the same time, there are better and cheaper things. A taste was more than enough.

I got this young Beenleigh as one of the samples from 24 days of rum. I like their world wide rum range. This one is little alcoholic on nose, but sugar cane on palate was fine. Why not, pleasant is the right verdict.

orange marmalade, vanilla, copper. Wasn’t for me

The nose promises Jamaican, palate says Whisky

I find the nose rather closed and vegetal. On the palate, it's a little more expressive, starting with a spicy woody note, followed by a fresh vegetal one. The finish is short to medium.

👃gives alcoholic and acidic whiff underlined with various solvents such as glue but hints of vanilla are present. 👅 is sort of sweet with spicy tones from barrel. Notes of burnt sugar and cocoa are prominent with slight soft sweetness. Not terrible but not great either. 👅 Is better than 👃 but it is not my cup of rum.

Nicht meins...

Nice sweet, but don't like the taste

Not my style.
