Travellers from Belize

It kinda feels like the market is being flooded with Belize’s Travellers Distillers Rums lately and I must say that I don’t mind it. Even though these releases are of vastly different quality, the best ones can easily keep up with some good Demerara column still Rums if you ask me. Alas, let’s see what…
