"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. Un nez aromatique mais on sent tout de suite qu’il s’agit d’arômes artificiels ici, ils sont accompagnés d’une amertume bizarre et de sucre. La bouche est tellement amère qu’on comprend pourquoi ils ont sucré ce liquide. La finale est courte sur l’amertume. Une boisson alcoolisée très éloignée de ce qui est écrit sur l’étiquette !"
