Cadenhead's 2005 Cask Strength SFBT 11-year-old rum hails from Belize's renowned Travellers Distillery, which was established in 1953 by Master Blender Omario Perdomo. This distillery emerged when the local demand for high-quality rum exceeded supply, prompting Perdomo to create his own distinctive blends. This particular batch from 2005 was aged for 11 years and later bottled in Scotland in 2016, reflecting the unique flavors of Belizean rums. With an impressive ABV of 63.4%, this 700 ml bottle promises an exhilarating experience for rum enthusiasts.
Connoisseurs will find the nose rich with sweet caramel and toffee, while the palate introduces robust notes of leather, chocolate, and herbs. Despite its high alcohol content, the rum is surprisingly smooth, revealing flavors of pine cone, raspberries, and earthy tones. The finish is sweet and lingering, with delightful hints of resin and honey. Reviewers have noted that the rum's high proof is well-integrated, making the 63.4% ABV less perceptible.
Overall, Belizean rums like this one stand out from traditional Spanish-style rums, offering unique and intriguing flavors that are both enjoyable and memorable. For those eager to explore new dimensions in rum, Cadenhead's 2005 Cask Strength SFBT 11yo 63.4% 700ml provides a remarkable opportunity.
