    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. Un nez très doux, cerises confites, fruits rouges mais plutôt du côté arômes artificiels. Du poivre et de l’acidité. De vrais arômes en bouche, des esters de l’intensité, des fruits rouges. La finale est moyennement longue, la plus longue jusqu’ici avec un côté sucré de bonbons et de sirop. Un côté boisé légèrement fumé complète le tout.

    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! 😊

    Der erste Arrack mit Charakter. Hintenraus fällt er dann doch alkoholisch ab.
