Spirit of the day Diamond #5 Guyana Port Mourant 2010 PM
More fruit than you'd expect from a Port Mourant — apple, pear, apricot and a hint of green banana up front, before the classic PM wood, anise and licorice settle in. The palate turns dry and spicy, with milk and dark chocolate, dried fruit and a real bitter edge that softens in the glass. Several tasters flag a whisky-like malt streak. The 54.3% is cleanly integrated — no burn.

Fruitier-than-usual Port Mourant, dry and spicy A consistently well-liked PM: complex, evolving and easy to drink for the style, with the alcohol beautifully tucked in. A few would have wanted another year or two in wood.

Tasted in a sample with 2 rum-loving friends. Unanimously we found this rum very pleasant. Pastry indulgence of crème brûlée-milk chocolate, a fruity dried apricot, controlled woodiness. The spicy sensation is rather mild and tends towards pepper-cardamom. The texture on the attack is fatty, the rum nicely envelops the palate. There are also touches of freshness.

Okay, but unbalanced
Review by Fuwi
On the nose, the typical notes of roasted almonds, dark fruits, and spices like cloves, cardamom, allspice, and anise. On the palate, burnt sugar and milk chocolate; the bitterness is only slightly present at the back of the throat. Further forward on the tongue, spicy, dark aromas come through along with a well-integrated alcohol and a rounded sweetness – a very successful bottling!

#6712 27.04.2026 Running a few extra samples after picking up my wife from work. Listening to some nice tracks by Giuseppe Ottaviani and Marie Vaunt on Spotify. When looking at the price tag this release is a bomb in my mind. Strong molasses, spice, smoke, wood, light fruit and chocolate.
Review by Thunderbird
This is a very easy-drinking Port Mourant. The 53% suits it very well and makes it easy to drink. It combines the typical floral herbal aromas... just like the herb bouquets in Provence. Added on the palate is a slight sweetness of brown caramel. A good PM that fits perfectly into this season.
Review by zabo
For a 2010 Diamond, not too bad at all. Spirit of the day, in my opinion, has a good hand when they bottle something. Didn't have big expectations. But I tasted something whisky-like, which I personally didn't like that much. That cost it a bit in the rating.
Review by TheJona'Spirits
👃 Boisé typique Port Mourant, avec des épices de cuisine, des fruits secs, cake anglais aux fruits confits, et ce côté herbeux que l'on peut retrouver dans des whisky doux de grains, fraîcheur camphrée légère, citron confit, pomme pochée, pomme-cannelle, fumée végétale, anis. Note savonneuse lointaine et non dérangeante. 😋 Boisé épicé des whiskies de malt doux. Beaucoup d'anis, de réglisse, herbeuse, bois humide, fruits confits, abricot, citron, pomme cannelle, poire, chocolat au lait. ⛳ Piquante, intense, amère, anisée et réglissée, herbacée. Sucre brûlée, chocolatée, sève, épices de cuisine. Caractéristique similaire au whisky. 🫗 Jolie note de chocolat au lait vanillé le lendemain. 💡 Bon PM avec un joli compte d'âge, à un bon rapport qualité prix. Il existe finalement peu de ce genre de Rhum du Guyana en brut de fût sans ajout sous les 100 euros. Celui-ci en fait partie. 🧐 Il faut toutefois apprécier les notes classiques de bois amer, anisé et légèrement humide caractéristiques du profil ainsi que des notes similaires à certains whiskies de grain.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A solid Guyanese rum, with a complex and delicate nose, woody at first then opening up to spices (cloves, anise, licorice, chili) and herbal (tea) and vegetal notes. Medicinal notes (camphor, esters, wax) also appear, then dried fruits (raisin) and almonds for a bit of indulgence and body. Very tasty and flavorful for a Port Mourant. The attack on the palate is direct and frank with a good share of dominant vegetal bitterness. Then comes a fresher and more indulgent sensation with an unexpected taste of mango, then sweetness on chocolate (dark and milk) and more pronounced spices (anise). The profile is surprising, highly evolving and very well managed. The alcohol is very well integrated, it’s very pleasant on the palate. We have a long, dry, woody, spicy, licorice, bitter and vegetal finish but always accompanied by this caramelized sweetness and dried fruits. It gradually fades away with subtlety. A very good vintage, especially for a rum always a bit delicate to approach like Port Mourant, hats off to the bottler for offering a gem of this caliber at an unbeatable price.
Review by Timo Groeger
Finally better rums here again. That it is a Guyana is basically undeniable, delicious. On the nose herbs, dried fruits and wood. On the palate spice, dried fruits and dark chocolate.
Review by Christian Rudt
The latest bottling from Spirit of the day (formerly Spiritori), a 15-year-old Port Mourant. And typical for PM a spicy nose with plenty of anise and dry fruits as accompaniment. Round. On the palate initially noticeable spice then a delicious compote of fruits slides over the palate which is pleasing. Alcohol is well integrated. Has a wonderful freshness and the typical depth of distillates from Guyana. Bitterness fights sweetness. Delicious. Highly recommended to try!
Review by Fred Tillac
👃 = Un tendre boisé, des fruits secs, de la vanille, de la crème brûlée avec un peu de pomme et de poire ainsi qu'un léger mix floral et herbacé. 👄 = Passée l'attaque un peu vive, c'est plutôt pâtissier en bouche, légèrement rond avec du caramel, du pain d'épices, un peu de réglisse avec toujours cette trame élégamment boisée. La finale est plutôt longue en faisant ressortir de la noix et des épices. Arômes et saveurs sont au rendez-vous de ce beau rhum guyanien 👏
Review by Julien Ries
Pretty amber color The nose is fantastic: soap for men, but in cedar essence. There's also a greedy, exotic fruitiness. A slight ester, and a discreet woodiness, on this cedar once again. The whole is very complex, and we spend long minutes unravelling it. A mid-nose brings its share of almond and marzipan. The spices are not to be outdone, with cardamom and camphor. The whole is topped with furniture wax, clove and red apple. The palate is surprising: I immediately had the impression of drinking an Irish whiskey with a fruity malt, pungent with cooking spices. There's licorice, with a slight bitterness of bitter dark chocolate with almonds. There's also a hint of dried fruit, in the style of an exotic aperitif blend. The finish is roasted, with morello cherries showing through. As you may have guessed, the whole is again very complex. Nothing soapy, though. finish: long, woody and spicy, licorice. bitter.
Review by Beaureve
Nase: Ich rieche hier vor allem Mandel und getrocknete Früchte. Hierzu kommt eine leichte Kräuter/Gewürz- und Holznote. Zudem nehme ich eine dezente Süße wahr. Die Nase gefällt mir (vor allem mit der präsenten Mandelnote) sehr gut. Geschmack: Sehr würzig. Zudem zu Beginn echt bitter (das wird allerdings nach einiger Zeit deutlich angenehmer). Aber auch die getrockneten Früchte sowie etwas Schokolade und Anis sind zu erkennen. Vor allem die getrockneten Früchte werden für mich nach einiger Zeit im Glas präsenter. Den Alkohol merkt man überhaupt nicht. Die Nase gefällt mir sehr gut. Leider kann er geschmacklich für mich hier nicht ganz mithalten. Dennoch echt lecker. Brauche ich aber keine ganze Flasche von.
Review by Jakob
Positive Überraschung - die PMs aus der 2010er Ära scheinen sich der Trinkreife zu nähern. Bislang schienen mir die Vertreter eher noch zu jugendlich-frisch, dieses Release aber zeigt sich erfreulich ausgewogen. Getrocknete Früchte, Haselnuss, Eichenholzsüsse, Anis, Pfeffer, etwas gebrannter Zucker und im Nachgang mineralische Noten von Jod. Tolle Komplexität.
Review by alex
I love dying ports, and this one is quite atypical because it doesn't have the usual profile. Nevertheless, it remains just as delicious, with beautiful notes of caramel butter fruits, a slight roasted side, cedar (which I particularly like). The alcohol is beautifully integrated... and with a nice length on the palate.
Review by Johannes
A still quite young Port Mourant with typical herbal notes. Hardly any olive and salt, but more fruity notes. I like it. Could benefit from longer aging.
Review by TheJackDrop
Nose: Dried fruits, almonds, camphor. Wood well present, and some vegetal, herbal notes, close to a succulent plant. The palate all softness, between chocolate, almond milk, dried fruits, and a hint of licorice. The finish much more intense warms the throat well, almond milk, wood, light spices, licorice, and a pronounced bitterness. A rollercoaster tasting, with an engaging nose, a perhaps a bit shy palate, and a very frank finish that I really liked!
Review by Florent Apl
I was hyped to try more bottlings from Spirit of the Day. On the nose, It's very fruity, not what I'd expect of a PM, although the PM markings are here, woody and pencil shavings, but not as much as on older PMs. The palate is dry, it's woody, dark chocolate and slightly herbal. While this is definitely a PM, it feels like it could have had a longer aging. It delivers more fruits than expected on the nose, but the palate could get more dried fruits. I see what people mean by the whisky side of it, it's not so obvious to me but I see what they mean.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
A very gourmand nose of orange, vanilla, honey, almond and spices. A palate of dried apricot, citrus, soft caramel, and a slight bitterness accompanied by a hint of anise (not disturbing even though I don't like it). I usually don't like PMs, but this is a nice release with a very easy-to-drink rum, alcohol very well integrated. Excellent value for money.
Review by Rhumakase
Nez sur les fruits exotiques, pomme, épices. Gourmand Bouche : poivre, amande, un peu de cannelle. Camphre. Fruits exotiques aussi, moins prononcé qu au nez. Finale épicée et sur les notes de fruits exotiques. Très bon, complexe.
Review by EspritRhum
L'alcool pourrait être mieux intégrer mais ça va. Je lui trouve un côté whisky en entame de bouche et en suite très rapidement le PM reprend le dessus.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Spirit of the Day – Port Mourant 2010 – 54.3% Here is a 15-year-old Port Mourant, bottled by Spirit of the Day (formerly Spiritori), a house gaining recognition in the world of independent bottlers. Distilled at Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) from the famous wooden Port Mourant still, this rum aged for 15 years in ex-bourbon casks and is offered to us at a natural strength of 54.3%. 👃 Nose: The opening is very fruity, with clear notes of apple, pear, and a touch of green banana. The whole is elegant, concentrated, with a nice gourmand touch. You also perceive creamy vanilla, mild pepper, and a hint of licorice. 👄 Palate: The attack is soft and fruity, very round. There's a nice balance between buttery aromas, blond caramel, candied citrus, marzipan, fresh almond, and a well-dosed touch of licorice. 🔚 Finish: Long and toasted, marked by roasted notes, dark chocolate, melted caramel, and a handful of raisins that bring roundness. ✅ Conclusion: Wow! A superb Port Mourant, both expressive, accessible, and very well balanced that my buddy Selvamino particularly enjoyed! A remarkable quality-price ratio (around €80), making it an excellent gateway into the world of characterful Demerara rums, without excess or harshness.
