Hey, I know there already were discussions about the fairness of (re-)posting tastings with photos added while the original intention was probably to mainly add new tastings with photos which really happened at that time. Now they are of course a few shades in exploiting that system. Probably the most dubious is making a gallery of all your samples and bottles (even unopened) and posting them all within a month without having really tasted them at that time. Perfect fairness does not exist, I know, but this is…I don’t know… “not so cool”. Any idea on how to create more fairness?
Adding text as a must will avoid this.
Anyway I think posting a testing without written notes is not really interesting. Just a quote ? Who will be interested if you cannot argue your x.x/10 ?
But is it a real problem? As when the dude opens the bottle/sample he will do the proper job, just later.
The last hours are running to secure any more tickets for the Rum Sponge Tasting Lottery and boost your chance of winning one of the coveted sets. Taste now in the RumX app!
