    "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."

    "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."

    "Leider alles andere als angenehm zu trinken. Rauchig, bitter, metallisch, säuerlich, dünn und verwässert. Eine herbe Enttäuschung und einer der schlechtesten 7y alten spanish style rums die ich bisher im Glas hatte.."
