    Dégustation des rhums de Puerto Rico d’Artur. Un nez plutôt faible avec des fruits et des fleurs. La bouche est vive avec des épices comme la cannelle, du bois et comme du Coca-Cola avec même un léger pétillant. Coca-Cola qu’on sent aussi en finale. Loin d’être un bon rhum, j’aime au moins le côté Coca-Cola, plutôt étonnant.

    5,4:On the nose, it is alcoholic, thin, but sharp metallic notes, wood spice, baking spices, a bit roasted with nuts, caramel andcsome citrus with lemon peel. 5,2:On the palate, the attack is alcoholic, sweet and syrupy with dried fruits, spicy wood notes as cinnamon, vanilla, there is a note of cola, some metallic touch. 5:The finish is short, light with sweetness, sugar, burnt sugar, a bit smoky and woody...

    06.12.2024 The liquid History of Puerto Rico Tasting Erstmal vielen Dank an Artur für die extreme Mühe und dass du teilweise so alte Rums überhaupt teilst. Die Rums selber waren jetzt bis auf ein paar wenige Ausnahmen nicht wirklich der Knaller, ABER mir hat es trotzdem sehr gut gefallen, da man solche Rums überhaupt nicht mehr ins Glas bekommt als Normalsterblicher und dieses ganze Hintergrundwissen das Artur geteilt hat finde ich wahnsinnig interessant. Da ziehe ich wirklich den Hut davor. Dicker Respekt!

    Dusted off a few weeks ago as a sample at Rum Kontor in Cologne. But it's not a good rum. Very alcoholic on the nose and then the same on the palate, with an added metallic taste. Alcohol poorly integrated. I would not recommend it.
