The Holmes Cay 2005 Travellers Belize Single Cask 15 year old rum is a limited edition release from independent bottler Eric Kaye. This extraordinary rum, aged entirely in the tropical climate of Belize, spent 15 years in ex-bourbon barrels, which imparted a deep, rich, dark amber hue. On the nose, it presents an intriguing blend of savory notes, reminiscent of oxidized oaky white wine, wet wood, coffee grounds, and dark fruit, with subtle hints of spice and salty burnt caramel. The palate offers a complex symphony of flavors, dominated by oak, spice, dark chocolate, and coffee, balanced with a sweet smoky fruitiness. The mouthfeel is notably viscous, enhancing the rich and bold character of the rum. This exceptional blend leads to a long, spicy finish with lingering tannic notes and a touch of peppermint. Comparisons to Foursquare offerings are inevitable, given the shared emphasis on rich, spicy profiles. Reviewers are divided on the degree of oak influence; some find it over-oaked, while others appreciate its depth and complexity. Overall, the Holmes Cay 2005 Travellers Belize Single Cask 15 year old rum is a remarkable expression, ideal for those who relish bold and flavorful rums.
