How does this rum taste?
Unique pine and resin character
Lively citrus and fruit notes
Left-field pastry sweetness
Aromatic bursts of lemon peel and resin introduce Alter Batavia Arrac Verschnitt, unfolding into layers of fruit and vanilla on the palate with a vegetal, piney touch. RumX tasters mention both its intriguing, unusual profile and hints of pastry and butteriness, while some note a mild, easygoing character. Worth a sip for fans of unconventional, resinous rums.

This is also reasonably drinkable. Lots of lemon and lemon peel on the nose, solvents are also recognizable. Also lemon and lemon peel on the palate, some vanilla can be detected, but unfortunately also quite alcoholic again.
Wieder einmal ein überragendes Tasting das Artur super organisiert hat. Vielen Dank in die Einführung in die Welt des Arra(c)ks. Die Verschnitte sind schon eine wahre Herausforderung an die Geschmacksnerven. Wirklich überrascht hat mich aber diese BASF Abfüllung. Meinen tiefsten Respekt für die Zeit und Mühe die dort immer wieder reingesteckt wird. Eine wirkliche Ehre immer wieder bei solchen Tastings dabei sein zu dürfen.
Arra(c)k 2.0 tasting by Artur. Varnish, butter and pear alcohol on the nose. The palate is diluted, alcoholic, buttery and fruity. Light oak, sweets but still neutral alcohol. The finish is short, but some aromas persist, fruit (grapes), butter, candy and light wood.
