Holmes Cay Belize 2006 16yr Rum｜ Other Products

Drinkhacker named this the number one rum of 2022. Holmes Cay is Eric Kaye's New York-based independent bottler, founded in 2019 to bring single-cask, cask-strength, additive-free rum to America with full transparency; Esquire named it one of the ten best rum brands. The Belize 2006 is molasses rum from Travellers Liquors, the family distillery in Belize City that's the country's only rum maker, distilled on a column still in 2006, fully tropically aged sixteen years in ex-bourbon oak in Belize, and bottled in New York State at 61% ABV with no sugar, color, or flavoring. Sixteen tropical years is a serious span — the equivalent of more than thirty in Scotland — and Belizean rum, usually met only in Copalli or the sweetened Travellers One Barrel, has never been seen like this. RumX scores it 8.0 to 8.1; Rum Ratings' drinkers put it among the bottler's best. Expect a deep amber pour with a nose of dark caramel, dried fig, toasted coconut, tobacco, and heavily toasted oak, opening into a dense, rich, dry palate of brown sugar, baking spice, leather, and dark chocolate with the proof carrying it all, finishing very long and warm, opening beautifully with water. Honest note: this is a single cask at cask strength, priced for rarity and for a number-one ranking, and once the cask is gone it's gone. Neat, with a drop of water, slowly.
