Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Though this would primarily be used as a mixer I think it does pretty well with a nice cigar. A rum in the cheaper end of the scale but not a bad one be it for sipping or mixing.
Review by cigares
Tasting of Artur's Puerto Rico rums. A nose with some yellow fruit, neutral alcohol, better than No. 1. The palate shows the beginnings of amplitude, but the taste and strength of the alcohol are very present. The finish is very short and sweet. Overall better than #1 except for the rather marked sweetness.
Review by Alex1981
Arturs Puerto Rico Tasting, danke für die tolle Übersicht und Historie :-) Angenehmener Sipper, Vanille & sanfte Süße ohne jetzt aufdringlich zu sein. Leicht alkoholisch und kurz im Finish. Nett aber mehr nicht
Review by Johannes
The liquid History of Puerto Rico - vielen Dank an Artur für die Teilung! Alkoholisch, dünn, flach, Column.

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!
Review by Mirco
Rum No. 2 Ähnlich dem No.1 jedoch biestiger mit weniger gut eingebundenem Alkohol. Vielen Dank Artur für diese Mega-Split Reise durch Rums aus Puerto Rico. Danke auch für die Arbeit die du für uns immer wieder auf dich nimmst und alte Flaschen für uns möglich machst! 😊
Review by LukaŽiga
4,5:On the nose, this rum is pretty unpleasant with strong alcoholic touch, edgy, sugarcane, grass, then some fruits with citrus and dried ones, oak, are felt... 4,8:On the palate, the attack is sweet and dry, alcoholic, with cane, dried fruits and some spices. 4,5:The finish is short, dry, sugary, metallic, alcoholic, varnish is here and of course, sugar cane...

23.02.25 The liquid History of Puerto Rico Tasting Danke an Artur für die tolle Gelegenheit und Mühe. In der Nase schwache Vanille, im Mund sehr einfach und fast ein bisschen sauer. Alkohol deutlich spürbar
Review by Skyfly
The liquid History of Puerto Rico Tasting - in der Nase primär Alkohol, etwas muffig, wenig andere Noten wahrnehmbar, vielleicht etwas Vanille. Im Gaumen ähnlich, etwas stärkere Vanille und junges Holz. Alkohol sticht nicht negativ
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Primär alkoholisch und etwas lack und Zitrusfrüchte aromatisch. Für ca. 30€ stimmt die die Preis Leistung hier definitiv nicht. Das einzig schöne ist hier die sehr aufwendig gemachte Flasche aber ansonsten eher enttäuschend und sehr sprittig.
Review by Leo Krüper
Hat einen sehr unangenehmen Abgang Richtung billigem Vodka aus Jugendzeiten. Wirkt insgesamt recht künstlich.
