    com‘on guys, not that bad. It has a nice and quite complex nose, not a typical PM or demerara, but a nice flavor of yello fruits, pear 🍐and abricot Obstler. Easy sipper on the palate with a nice amaretto touch. Medium finish.

    Naja, dieser Port Mourant bringt die grundlegenden Eigenschaften mit …. Und das war es dann aber auch. Schade drum, ich vermute, etwas mehr Zeit im Fass hätte ihm gut getan. Aber wer weiß dass schon!!

    Quite a positive surprise. On the nose the expected heavy notes but then also a fresh note of herbs? green bell pepper??. On the palate then a well integrated alcohol with the same changing flavors of coffee, wood and toasted barrel and a fresh anise/herbs/menthol note (am still on green peppers too). finish like my grandma's peppernuts, with anise and nutmeg.

    Auto-translated

    Beautiful PM markers on the nose with olive, aniseed, herbs, clove, somehow almost a little overloaded, like a 'PM concentrate'. A little tangy on the palate. Behind that, spice, barrel. With a few drops of water it becomes a little less rough, but also loses intensity. I think a few more years in the barrel would have had the greatest effect here.
