Hi,
ich trinke schon einige Jahre Rum, bin gelegentlich auf Messen oder Tastings unterwegs aber so richtig vollständig rumverrückt bin ich erst durch Rum-X geworden Nun fällt mir auf, dass es bei den vielen Releases immer mehr Abkürzungen gibt. XO ist noch einfach, bei anderen muss offen zugeben, dass mir die Bedeutungen nicht bekannt sind.
Vielleicht kennt ihr alle Bedeutungen oder kennt eine gute Übersicht, die ihr mit mir teilen könnt. Falls es keine Übersicht gibt, würde ich mich freuen, wenn wir hier die gängigsten und ihre Bedeutungen sammeln würden.
Wenn ich falsch liege, sagt das auch gern

Ich nehme eure Postings in den ersten Beitrag alphabetisch auf, wenn nichts dagegen spricht.
English (short version)
Hi Folks,
i am discovering a growing number of abbrevations regarding rum, especially at the rare ones. To be honest i have often no clue about the meanings behind them. Maybe there is somewhere a good list / faq but i am not aware of it and happy if anyone will share it. Otherwise it would becool if we can collect the abbrevations here and I will summarize them in this first post.
If its bogus, feedback welcome.
Grüße / regards
Matthias
