Reviewers are captivated by the complexity and unique characteristics of the Compagnie Des Indes 2008 Travellers Belize 14yo. The nose begins with fruity and intense old pipe tobacco notes, transitioning into sweet and fruity aromas like apricot, coconut, cream toffee, vanilla, and milk chocolate. The palate continues with old pipe tobacco, a hint of bitterness, and elements like pecan, mint, licorice, and a sweet rubbery note.
