Hi, I found a great bar ("Roosevelt") in Munich/Germany a few weeks ago. They have over 200 (two-hundred) different rums! Everything I ever hearde of. The variety is amazing on the regular menu...but then, when you get to the end, it says: "Please ask our servixe for the special rum menu!" I will definitly stay there from time to time...;-)

Hi, so would you share your descriptors with us?? That would be very helpful I guess! Thanks! ronzacapa77

I wopuld add: Brugal extra vijeo Bermudez Anniversario Havana Club 7 anos Varadero 7 anos... though the zacapa 23 ans some other stuff on the list is a different level of ums!

Hi Kevin, I had the same kind of feelings...like ridiculous etc.....but then I gave it a second thougt. SO I think it helps you naming what you taste, and therefor naming what you like.... But to be honest: I have no idea what some of the stuff on these wheels smell/tase like.....;-) Anyway, I think it is a good idea, and I just wondered why this is so elaborated for whiskey, butr not for rum? bye ronzacapa77

some of the examples, but these seem to cover most of the approaches out there: http://www.whisky-info.de/Scotch/genuss/nosing.htm and a very complex and nice one: http://www.whiskymag.com/gfx/nosing/Whiskywheel-Big.jpg

Hi David, seems to be a good idea! But wihich of the many nosing wheels for whisk(e)y do you refer to? I found like 10 different, one from Diageo, one from a store.... ....and: probably "peaty" would also have to be removed/replaced...what do you think? Actually, Cane might be a better choice. ←

Hi, this is my fist post....though I'm reading te posts for quite a while now. Since quite a time I am wondering whether there is something like the "nosing-wheel" (whiskey-drinkers should be familiar with this...) for rum? It is a tool for making rum tasting a bit more "objective" and easier.... After some research it seems to me, that there is nothing similar for rum...... What about developping a basic one here together in the forum? Any suggestions or ideas? Thanks!
