Romdeluxe Travellers Wild Series Rum Origin No. 1 Draw 1 2022

RomDeluxe is the Danish house behind the Wild Series, known for high strength single cask funk bombs with black and white animal labels. This Travellers Wild Series Origin No. 1 is a Belize molasses rum bottled at a raw 60 percent, drawn from a 2022 distillation and released for side by side draw comparisons, a power forward release for those who chase intensity.

Drawn early as the first cut after the head, it reads cleaner and smoother than its strength implies. The nose is grassy, herbal and light, the palate turns herbal, spicy and dry with a complex edge, and the finish stays warm and dry with dried fruit and floral notes, picking up hints of coconut, chocolate and cane along the way. It keeps a recognisable Belize character despite the punch. Strong yet smooth, it works as a high octane mixer or a careful neat pour, and rewards comparison against its sibling draws.
