Bremer Rum Contor Robinson Batavia Arrac Verschnitt AV
Better than you'd fear from a Batavia arrack Verschnitt — that's the recurring surprise here. Fermented tropical fruit, glue and light ester on the nose hint at a diluted Jamaican cousin, then the palate turns buttery with cream toffee and a metallic, slightly bitter edge. At 40% the neutral spirit still shows through, and the finish goes short, dry and soapy. Curious, not polished.
The community says- Light Jamaican esters
- But: Metallic, soapy edge
- But: Short bitter finish

How does Bremer Rum Contor Robinson Batavia Arrac Verschnitt AV taste?
Summarized by AI from 13 community reviews.
Buttery, ester-tinged arrack Verschnitt, still rough One of the friendlier Verschnitt bottlings by member accounts — some ester and butter to enjoy, but the blend still shows through, and it lands middling.

Review by Timo Groeger
Apparently things are looking up in the world of Arracks. This one is already a bit better. Quite fruity (tropical fruits) and fermented on the nose. On the palate also tropical fruits, plus it is sweet and alcoholic at the same time.

Review by zabo
Once again an outstanding tasting that Artur organized superbly. Many thanks for the introduction to the world of Arra(c)k. The blends are a real challenge for the taste buds. But what really surprised me was this BASF bottling. My deepest respect for the time and effort that is always put into it. A real honor to be able to participate in such tastings again and again.
Review by cigares
Arra(c)k 2.0 tasting by Artur. A much more interesting nose than the previous ones, with butter, pepper, tropical fruit, cedar wood and esters. A decent entry with neutral alcohol, but also tropical fruit, butter, light pepper and pear. The finish is spicy (pepper), woody with a hint of pear. Unlike its predecessors, it doesn't seem to be a verschnitt, and has a Jamaican feel with esters, but very diluted.
Review by Mirco
Arrac(k) tasting 2.0 by Artur. An exciting tasting journey with an impressive range of styles and profiles. From smoky to fruity to spicy, everything was represented – sometimes a bit unbalanced, sometimes surprisingly round. Especially some bottlings showed a lot of character and depth and stayed memorable. A format that is really fun. Thanks Artur for the opportunity! 😊
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
The nose still promises pleasant esters reminiscent of Jamaica with some tropical fruits & butyric acid. On the palate also some esters, some smoke and metallic notes, slightly buttery and minimally woody. Still far from round here, as the blend is still noticeable.
Review by Alex1981
One of the better representatives, with sweetness, wood, and butter cookies. Arra(c)k Attack 2.0 tasting with Artur all across, from really nasty blends to surprisingly good representatives, everything included. Great journey to this completely unknown spirit to me so far.
Review by Johannes
Arrack 2.0 @Artur: More flavor, some fruit, bitterness, coffee, esters.
