Review by Johannes
Sehr guter, komplexer, typischer Vertreter des Port Mourant aus 1989. Ich mag das Geschmacksprofil sehr gerne! Leider zwei Mankos: der Preis und der niedrige Alkoholgehalt.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Another grand old lady but not as good. Price to quality is out of balance. A nice rum though just not what I expected, I did prepare myself for a great experience but got burned a bit.
Review by Jakob
Aromatically quite complex - but it needs some patience. Plenty of spice and wood, which are reflected in licorice, leather, pepper and smoky notes. In addition, a passable portion of herbs and minimal sweetness with well-tarred alcohol. Meets overall unfortunately not completely my preferred Geachmacksprofil, so it is not enough in my subjective assessment for an even higher score - despite undisputed high level.
Review by DomM
Small 1989 Utivlugt cross tasting: Nobilis vs. CorCol vs. CoR vs. Ricci vs. TWJ. On the nose: CoR >>> Ricci > TWJ = Nob > CC With its higher ABV the CoR is playing in a wholly different league - stunning on the nose. CC needs very much time to open up. TWJ with the darkest nose; Most leather and wood forwards. Palate: CoR > Nobilis > CC > TWJ >> Ricci While I really enjoy the nose on this one, it cannot hold up an the palate. Feels watered down with less fruity notes and significantly less balance vs. other 89s.
Review by BnBrt
Nez léger, plutôt sucré et agréable. En bouche, je ne le trouve pas très vivace, première impression agréable avec un côté 'crumble aux pommes' épicé. La finale est légère mais assez longue avec d'abord la persistance des épices et du poivre avant de s'étirer sur la pomme verte. C'est un bon rhum mais au prix de la bouteille je m'attendais à nettement mieux.
