"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!"
"Dégustation des rhums de Puerto Rico d’Artur. Alcool de prune et agrumes au nez. Une entrée de bouche presque agréable avec des fruits de la douceur et du bois léger. Un côté grillé ensuite un peu bizarre et décalé. La finale n’est pas si courte, quelques fruits la prolongent un peu. De la douceur, de la vanille et un bois bien intégré."
"The liquid History of Puerto Rico - many thanks to Artur for sharing! Lots of neutral alcohol, rather something for mixing."
