    Very good real and authentic Batavia arrack. Mega board in the daiquiri & arrackiri! Absolutely on a par with the one from by the Dutch, if not a tad better. Unfortunately only available in Switzerland at Labat in Zurich! Really nice product. PS: be sure to order arrack drinks in the embury bar in Frankfurt!

    Auto-translated

    Arra(c)k 2.0 tasting by Artur. Du beurre et du vinaigre au nez, feschester doux, de la fraîcheur végétale et des herbes sèches. Un nez assez contrasté. La bouche est un peu heurtée avec du végétal frais, de la douceur et des esters. La finale est assez longue mais un peu amère et piquante mais les fruits frais sont là avec du thé noir et des tanins. Un arrack qui ressemble à un Clairin, par exemple Sajous ?

    Klasse Abfüllung, extrem komplex hnd rund trotz kurzer Lagerung. Mein Favorit des Abends! Arra(c)k Attack 2.0 Tasting mit Artur einmal quer durch, von richtig fiesem Verschnitt bis zu erstaunlich guten Vertretern alles dabei. Tolle Reise zu dieser mir bis dato komplett unbekannten Spirituose.

    A modern version made for bars. I really enjoyed this pure and in a drink. The esters here really have some long pond vibes that is the nearest known description for me for this. This is probably the best lightly aged arrak in the market right now
