    This rum is a top notch when it comes to flavours as well as complexity and balance. Perfect ABV integration and lightly dry with nice fruits and roasted wood. The spices only enhances the overall profile. I really like the coffee on the finish and the empty glass is wonderful even after several hours.

    Fantastic PM! My favorite of the 89!

    Wow is the old, wow is the beautiful!Nose: complex and intense. Pleasantly woody with nice dark fruit and a subtle spiciness. Woody acidity with maple syrup and some Maggi. Moist pipe tobacco to go with it. Cherry and grape and some orange with dried apricot. A slightly vinous undertone. Palate: elegant and full-bodied. Super round wood for its age. Malty toast, sweet and sour treacle, light nutty bitter notes from pecans. Wood acidity and newsprint segue into dried apricot, tr. date. Rear light anise and black tea.Great flavor curve on the palate.

    Many continental Port Mourant of all bottlers, have already found their way into my glass. In my eyes, however, most of it is hardly worth mentioning and just okay. But what was produced here in '89, you simply can not compare. Here, continental aging can definitely keep up with various tropical Demeraras. Especially the SS surprised me very positively. A very intense and complex nose with lots of peach and solvent. Absolutely smooth to drink. I like it very much!
