Belizean Blue Signature Blend Rum (70cl, 40%)

A blend of several rums produced in Belize by Travellers Liquors. Its components age for up to seven years in former Bourbon casks, and the molasses comes from locally grown, Fairtrade-certified sugar cane. Master Blender Jaime "Maito" Perdomo developed several blends from the distillery's aged stocks; the chosen composition combines a soft, sweet-spicy character with fine coconut and vanilla notes, plus toffee, caramel, cinnamon, nutmeg and subtle oak spice, with nutty spice on the palate. The rum has no added colouring and is bottled at 40% in a 70cl bottle, with a gift tube bearing the blue morpho butterfly motif. The nose shows vanilla, coconut, toffee, cinnamon, nutmeg and subtle oak spice. The palate is full-bodied yet soft, with vanilla, sweet toffee, caramel, fine coconut and mild, nutty spice. The long finish stays soft with sweet and spicy impressions.
