Tasting of Artur's Puerto Rico rums. Rum? Nothing like it here: synthetic cherry on the nose, candy, wood and alcohol. The palate combines artificial cherry and plum aromas, wood, alcohol and sugar. In no particular order, of course. The finish is ultra-short, and bitter herbs remain. A house blend of bitter herb liqueur, neutral alcohol, wood chips, Ricola candy, sugar and vanillin. A few points for originality.
Arturs Puerto Rico Tasting, danke für die tolle Übersicht und Historie :-) Kopfschmerzen in Flaschenform. Extrem künstlich, süß, Sirup artig. Kirschlollies in flüssig. Will nocht wissen was da alles an Zusätzen drin ist 🤪
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!
