100% Port Mourant DNA. Dark, thick espresso, the wood present despite long aging, but not dominant. Tolerates a minimum of 30, better 60 minutes in the glass, the nose develops enormously - very nice, never overwhelming cask strength. Bonus: Bottle and massive wooden box - a dream.
12.06.2020 Relaxing over a nice lunch with friends and family and a few rums. Notes Very dark in colour (almlst black). Nose Elegant, wood, roasted, light smoke, fruit, raisin, light caramel. Palate Oily, balanced, complex, dried fruit, caramel, light grape, light coffee. Finish Long, complex, wood, roasted, dried fruit, light caramel, coffee, faint chocolate. Extra note Needs to rest for a very long time to open up properly.
I wanted something special for my 600th tasting. Et voilà: a 41-year-old PM from 1974! I am greeted by a deep, dark, molasses-like aroma on the nose. Definitely Guyana. After standing for a while, I sip the glass in awe - oh yes, an absolutely worthy aged rum. Wood, leather, spice, molasses, hardly any fruit, barely noticeable alcohol, but still enough power. So blindly I would have guessed a really old KFM (are there any before 1991?). I hope my naivety is forgivable. But when do you ever have a 74 PM in your glass?
Uiuiui, der ist ja auch richtig lecker. Vielen Dank an DomM fürs Teilen. Im Gegensatz zu den 1975er die wir heute im Glas hatten unterscheidet er sich schon, obwohl nur ein Jahr dazwischen liegt. Die lange Zeit im Fass hat ihn aber nicht geschadet. Topp Rum, daran gibt es nichts zu rütteln.
