Pungent aromas with solvent, overripe apple and vegetal hints give way to a sweet but thin, metallic palate marked by alcoholic sharpness. Most RumX tasters found it dominated by harshness and off-notes—recommended only for those exploring unusual arrak profiles.

    Arrack 2.0 @Artur: Etwas mehr Körper, chemisch, metallisch.

    I'm still sorry that it didn't work out for me with the tasting :-( This one is already very hard. It is predominantly alcoholic, very metallic and chemical, solvents are recognizable.

    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.

    Arrac(k)-Tasting 2.0 von Artur. Eine spannende Tasting-Reise mit einer beeindruckenden Bandbreite an Stilen und Profilen. Von rauchig über fruchtig bis würzig war alles vertreten – teils etwas unausgewogen, teils überraschend rund. Besonders einige Abfüllungen zeigten viel Charakter und Tiefe und blieben im Gedächtnis. Ein Format, das richtig Spaß macht. Danke Artur für die Gelegenheit! 😊
