Sipped neat, this old Demerara leans hard into wood — leather, licorice and black tea sit up front, with red fruit and anise underneath. Several tasters call it a "typical PM" profile but on the dry, dark side. The catch keeps coming up: at 46.7% it reads a touch thin and short, and a few wished for more proof to carry the age.
The community says- Anise & leather

How does The Whisky Jury Port Mourant Nanayang Whisky Singapore 1989 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dry, wood-forward Port Mourant with a thin body Well-liked but not adored — most find it a gentle, wood-forward PM that needs air, marked down for thin body and a short finish at this proof.

Review by Thunderbird
A pleasant mild PM, but more on the woody side. I like it, but it might not be to everyone's taste. I also detect some red fruit and aniseed on the nose. The same on the palate and minimal olive, alongside the dominant wood. This is also how the finish ends.
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 The TWJ also feels a little watered down to much comparatively. However it is better balanced than the Ricci. Wood and herb forwards.
Review by mto75
Compared to the Nobilis No 6 (89, 31 yr), the WJ has the more typical PM nose with lots of olive, anise, gooseberry, caramel. Barrel, black tea on the palate. The tart finish compensates quite well for the rather low ABV.
Review by DaveLamb
The palate is slightly sour, and there is still 89 Uitvlugt's wood tone, and the woody aroma is not abrupt but not very comfortable. The flavor is a bit messy and missing, that itself (or aging...) or the degree is too low is unknown. The same question as Silver Seal Demerara 89(RX3567), but given that its counterpart is 55.8% but it is only 46.7%, I think there is an improvement. RA 1989(RX7791) solves these problems well, complex and balanced. In general, the flavor concentration of this bottle still needs to be improved and lacks some feature of aging. The finish is short. It's more like whisky, not as rich and powerful as Perola's low-proof rum.
Review by Alex1981
Nice gentle profile with damp & mushroomy notes. The wood adds some sweetness & spices, but could be better integrated. Unfortunately a bit thin & short on the finish, would have loved to see this with a higher abv.
Review by Johannes
Complex despite the low percentages, typical olive PM notes with less fruit, long, somewhat astringent finish.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#4501 01.12.2023 This one needs to rest for a good while before giving it a go. A pretty nice release with heavy wood notes on one side and a kind of light profile on the other. Medium fruity with a nice licorice touch. The palate is oily and medium dry with a nice smoky touch. The finish long and warm with some citrus. I really like the light smoky note in the profile. The empty glass has some leather and faint caramel.
Review by TheJona'Spirits
👃 Candied fruits from Christmas cake, fruit paste (pear, mandarin, apricot, cherry), sap, candied roots, barley sugar, aniseed candies, sore throat candies, licorice rolls. A bit of hot tar at times, polished oak, very slight brine without esters. 😋 Quite a lot of tannins, we find the woody licorice more than aniseed, candied red fruits (again from the Christmas cake), a fermentary side, sour cherries, leather, black tea, wood smoke, a note of green olive. A dry, bitter and acidic profile. The ABV is low and never felt. This dram reminds me of a very lightly peated whisky aged in sherry casks. ⛳ Long, sweet heat, soft, bitter, astringent, then drying. Mountain plant barley sugar, citrus and candied cherries, black tea, then cigar tobacco. 💡 A very nice Port Morant, without the soap note, no damp wood or metal. Instead, candied fruits, vegetal and rooty notes, a bittersweet barley sugar sweetness. Not stunningly complex despite some finesse that appears if you give it time. A nice Demerara far from the more known roasted profiles.
Review by zabo
All in all a solid bottling from The Whisky Jury, but not something I'd fight over. I find it leans more on the woody side. In my opinion, it also needs some time in the glass to really unfold.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Amazing nose. Tasty, but not extra full. Alcohol is not fully integrated, but after first hit to tongue nice and mild taste remain
Review by Mopar Rules
Disclaimer: not yet recovered, so my judgment is clouded. Poured a shot of DDL’s 1998 PM, which I like a lot, to compare in parallel. Very similar on the nose, TWJ is even fruitier and typical PM. More bitter on the palate and not convincing but the DDL today is quite similar. So maybe no tasting for the next days
Review by Philip M. 🇧🇪
25/01/2025: tasted @ Liquid Leuven in "De Hoorn". Since this bottling was only available for the Asian market, I just had to try it. How could I refuse a 33 years old rum, distilled at Uitvlugt using the PM still? Difficult to write down notes, as this was the last rum I tried that day (palate fatigue).
