Review by Mirco
Verkostung von Niki und Arturs Aventurien Teil 2. Besten Dank für die Möglichkeit diese alten Kuriositäten & Raritäten zu probieren! 😊 Nr. 5 Wunderbarer Rum. Obwohl verdünnt dennoch komplex. Banane mit Honig. Toll.
Review by cigares
A rum from the "Niki's und Arturs Jamaiksnische Aventurien Teil 2" series. Here we recognize a Jamaican rum with yellow fruit, ripe banana, smoke and wood. On the palate, there's a hint of honey and cedar wood (cigar box). The finish is long, with a light bitterness on top. An easier, more consensual rum.
Review by Johannes
Nikis und Arturs Jamaikanische Aventurien Teil 2: Honig, cremig, buttrig, schöner langer Abgang. Blind wäre ich klar bei Rockley 86. gefällt mir sehr gut, auch wenn er etwas dünn ist, aber eben sehr filigran.
Review by DomM
Very nice find. Aged and complex profile.
Review by Frederic
In der Nase schöne Bananennoten aus Estern. Der Gaumen zeigt anfangs etwas Muffigkeit, dies wird jedoch nach hinten raus deutlich besser und eine Honigsüse kommt dazu. Die Banane zeigt sich auch wieder und der Rum bleibt ziemlich lange präsent.
Review by Leo Tomczak
Again these honey, glue notes in the nose. Then wood on the palate. Most comparable to watery modern Monymusks. Clearly more modern style than the other rums from the 50s in the tasting.
Review by zabo
Nikis und Arturs Jamaikanische Aventurien Teil 2. Zu erst Mal wieder ein dickes Dankeschön für die Chance solche Raritäten im Glas zu haben. Um es auf den Punkt zu bringen, war Jamaikanischer Rum vor Jahrzehnten nicht der Rum, den man heutzutage aus Jamaika kennt, denoch sehr interessant diesen zu probieren. Diese sind nicht wirklich spitzenmäßig, aber denoch mehr als Trinkerbar.
