Heritage rum with light, sweet, subtle notes.

    Dégustation des rhums de Puerto Rico d’Artur. Un nez avec des fruits, fruits jaunes et mirabelle, du bois et un côté floral. La bouche est diluée, peu de fruits et un peu de bois. La finale est assez belle avec des fruits des fleurs et même un léger goudron.

    A tricky rating, really nice nose, some floral notes of spring flowers. that is not continued on the palate, some violet that turns aggressivley turns into violet soap. Daiquiri: Dry, adstringent and not, really not balanced. Dry but not aromatic 2/5 Stars

    Etwas Holz und Nuss im Bacardi-Stil.

    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!
