    The liquid History of Puerto Rico Tasting Nr. 14 - sticht gegen seine Vorgänger heraus. Im Gaumen und Abgang etwas Zimt

    23.02.25 The liquid History of Puerto Rico Tasting Danke an Artur für die tolle Gelegenheit und Mühe. Nase: Frucht, Holz, leichte Süße Mund: Mild würzig, fruchtig Abgang mittellang Urteil ok

    Again an at the time incredibly expensive rum. some nut to the standard, worn out bourbon cask. Meh to the max. Finishes like it started. Daiquiri: Booooring, but ok, the vanilla is extremely poignant. 2/5 Stars

    Dégustation des rhums de Puerto Rico d’Artur. Peu d’arômes au nez, de la douceur, du bois, des fruits jaunes et de la vanille. Un bois assez marqué en bouche, de la mirabelle, des fruits jaunes et de l’alcool neutre. La finale est courte avec des fruits, du bois et de la douceur. Ici aussi on est très loin d’un rhum premium.
