Someone mistook the tequila bottle for arrak. Wow, all the mineral vegetal markers of a Good arezuare are here. In the drink it is clearly a tequila sour. This is beyond fascinating and really nice product
Total abgefahren und funky!😄 Erinnert stark an sehr mineralischen Tequila wie ocho oder tapatio. Geschmacklich auch starke Tendenzen zu Raicilla oder Bacanora, generell sehr agavig! Dazu grüne Paprika, Rauch und Banane. Wirklich lecker und außergewöhnlich! 😄
Arrack 2.0 @Artur: Anfangs Worthy Park-Noten, aber dann krasse Rauchnoten. Auch wenn ich kein Fan davon bin, schöner Körper.
Rauchig nach Mezcal, Funk dazu. Echt gut trinkbar! Arra(c)k Attack 2.0 Tasting mit Artur einmal quer durch, von richtig fiesem Verschnitt bis zu erstaunlich guten Vertretern alles dabei. Tolle Reise zu dieser mir bis dato komplett unbekannten Spirituose.
