    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. A very fruity nose with yellow fruit (apple), cashew nuts, strawberry candy and very well-integrated wood. Yellow fruit on the palate with toffee, discreet wood, olive, red fruit and yogurt. The finish is rather long, with yellow fruit and wood. The wood lingers for a very long time. A very original bottle with a beautiful label and you can't help but think of a Grand Arôme de Savanna here. My favorite so far!

    Very nice - a lot of reminiscence to GA Savannas.

    Ausdrucksstarker, zitroniger Arrack. Sehr kontrovers.
