How does this rum taste?
- Classic Port Mourant intensity
- Complex woody and spicy notes
- Rewarding after time in glass
Deep, robust notes of wood, licorice, and anise lead the profile of the El Dorado Rare Collection PM 1999, balanced by leathery undertones and a touch of dried fruit. RumX tasters highlight its intensity, classic Port Mourant character, and rewarding complexity after some time in the glass. For fans of bold, woody Demerara rums, this limited release is well worth exploring.

"Needs some time in the glass but then shows multilayered flavors that come together, I think, very elegant. He has quite a lot of force to which you have to get used briefly. Unusually, I find the quite present saltiness. A few drops of water I also find not wrong."
"Today, Port Mourants has been around for what feels like an eternity. El Dorado 1997: Delicious Port Mourant with the typical aroma profile. Very pleasing, alcohol perfectly integrated, very drinkable. It lacks a little complexity. 85 pts. El Dorado 1999: A little more closed than its brother from 1997, the alcohol is not as well integrated. I had hoped for more here. 80 pts. Tamosi Karaya 1998: Great stuff! With the typical Port Mourant aromas that take root in its complexity and expand aroma-wise. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and pleasant, the alcohol is excellently integrated. 90pts."
"Don’t know why, but didn’t like it when I tasted it. Really don’t now why, but maybe because I was at rum cruise in the Baltic Sea with lots of tasings."
"Looking at the previous reviews, this is a controversial rum. I didn't really like the 1997 brother because of an unpleasant acidity. This one may be the slightly simpler of the two El Dorado Port Mourants, but for me it's clearly the better rum. Up front: a little oxidation does it good. A few minutes or even hours in the glass is no harm to let some aggressive alcohol evaporate here. The nose is a typical, mature Port Mourant: aniseed and wet cardboard, wet wood. Plus rubber, Kalamata olives, dried fruit, very ripe banana, heavily roasted coffee. Everything is very harmonious. I could smell it for hours. The mouth is a little weaker, but I don't find the raging alcohol that others have described. I find the alcohol integration perfectly fine. The profile is similar and bone dry. Aniseed, old and wet wood, some brine, the roasted coffee again, plus leather and licorice. The finish is long and surprisingly smooth with leather, licorice, soft tannins and lots of dark spices: anise, cloves. I think this is a super PM! I wouldn't buy it for 250€. The 140€ I paid is excellent value for money"
