Flensburg Rum Company Platypus Edition 2025
Easy-going drinkers and newcomers get the most out of this one. It's a 7-year Australian molasses rum at 43%, leaning woody and nutty with dried fruit, butterscotch and a little caramel. Several tasters found it pleasant but thin — and oddly, both watery and a touch alcoholic at once. A bitter oak note and a hint of mint show up on the finish.
- Easy at 43%
- Nutty caramel notes
- Beginner-friendly

Easy, woody-nutty everyday sipper, slightly thin Most call it a pleasant, honest daily sipper that's gentle at 43%. The recurring catch: it tastes a bit watered-down and basic, with a bitter woody finish that doesn't win everyone over.

#5548 11.10.2025 Visiting the Whisky Live Hamburg 2025 event. It was the first of its kind and went off pretty well. They still have to learn a lot about running an event like this. People were allowed to bring backpacks and even cabin bags to the event and that is a problem in my mind. This one wasn't really me. A light slightly unbalanced Australia in my mind. Fruity with a floral touch mixing with some nuts and chocolate.

Australia Advent Calendar 2025 (6.1). Un nez plutôt doux de fruits secs, de fruits jaunes, de végétal, floral et légèrement fermenté. La bouche est douce, presque sucrée, diluée. Puis les arômes montent un peu avec des arômes gourmands de caramel au beurre, d’abricots secs et d’huile de coco. L’alcool paraît très léger. La finale est moyennement longue avec le boisé amer et l’huile de noix de coco qui restent longtemps. Un

Australia Artur Advent Calendar 2025 (6.1) Dieser Rum ist auf der hellfruchtigen Seite mit einem bitteren holzigen Aroma im Abgang unterwegs. Intensiv auf der Zunge und zugleich wirkt er verwässert. 46% abv tipp: 12 Jahre Sherry finish

Arturs Adventskalender Australien #6.1: Am Anfang war ich sehr unschlüssig. Keine schlechte Nase, aber fast unbestimmbare fruchtige und leicht würzige Aromen. Alkohol hat nicht zu spüren. Ab dem Gaumen dann keine Frucht mehr; nur Holz und Süße

Artur’ Aussie Advent, 6.1: Rather basic profile.
Review by David Riek
Pleasant daily sipper. Also good for beginners, very pleasant to drink at 43%. Good value for money. Fruity and pleasant on the nose, with slight traces of mint and wild berries on the palate.
