The Wild Parrot DDL Guyana from PM Still 1999

Highly regarded as a textbook PM: dry, woody and medicinal with citrus and licorice complexity. Well-made and characterful, though more steady than mind-blowing for many reviewers.

    Textbook Port Mourant profile
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy traditional Port Mourant dryness, wood and medicinal notes, this is a reliable pick—just don’t expect the most complex or best-value PM on the market.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, sweetness-seekers, and buyers wanting a loud, ultra-complex or great value Guyanese; some find it too dry, thin and expensive for the experience.

    Aroma

    Citrus Licorice Allspice Orange peel

    Taste

    Smoky Licorice Citrus Medicinal

    08.10.2021 Enjoying some samples at home. Notes Light to medium dark in colour. Nose Light wood, faint smoke, dried fruit, plum, faint marzipan, light metallic, faint olive. Palate Round, balanced, wood, light roasted, medium dry, spice, clove, light prunes, faint citrus, light metallic, faint nutts. Finish Medium to long, wood, dried fruit, faint smoke, light medicinal, spice.

    Actually, the 99 vintage is one of my favorites among the PMs. This one is rather weak compared to the others, tastes a bit thin, clearly lacks complexity, at the same time there is a slight woody off note.

    Typical PM profile. I lack a little the element of surprise that would justify the called price. Not a bad rum, but m.E. no highlight.

    one of the most disappointing PM, especially when it comes to tropical aging. Whether it's a dark, heavy type, or a pure, sweet type, this one is incomplete, the thick, oily body is not necessary, but its flavor is too thin. Under the premise of lacking flavor, the only flavor left is not coherent.
