"Quite light and fruity compared to older Port Mourants" is the recurring take, and that youth defines it. Green apple, ripe pear and a whiff of varnish lead the nose; the palate turns oily with pear, vanilla, wood and a faint chocolate note. At 59.3% it needs a rest in the glass, then the fruit comes through clean.
The community says- Clean green fruit
- Well-integrated ABV
- Keep in mind: Tastes young

How does Diamond (Port Mourant) Kill Devil 2008 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Young, fruity Port Mourant at cask strength A young, fruit-forward PM that divides the room — some find it juvenile and one-note, others love the clean fruit and the odd rubbery funk that grows on you.

Serge writes in a great review: "Nose: get out of here! Brand new Pirellis, two tons of rubber bands, and your sister's bicycle inner tubes. You see the idea...Mouth (neat): Ardbeg matured in a new scuba diving suit. Plus salt and lemon. The question is, do we enjoy this much rubber?" My answer a year ago: No, I found it undrinkable! In the meantime, the profile is a prime example of acquired taste. Compared to the 2005 PMs, it really is much dirtier: acetone, rubber, a hint of smoke - behind it the typical pome fruit and fresh sourdough bread. The aniseed note of the 2005s is missing. In the mouth, Serge hits the nail on the head: rubber, brine and a hint of lemon. My answer today: yes. Or to say it with Serge: "There's bad rubber and there's good rubber. This is good rubber."

A bottling that needs some time - the youthful age shapes the distillate, and the alcohol still clearly shows its strength. The interplay of citrus peel, fully ripe pear and apple, young wood, and some spicy aroma still has charm. And with increasing time in the bottle and the accompanying oxidation, a quite harmonious overall picture emerges that can unfold its charm. Among comparably young Demeraras with a positive unique selling point and therefore comparatively exciting. Overall, it doesn't reach the higher range, but that doesn't always have to be the goal.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Yet another rum that needs to be rested properly before you nose and sample it or the ABV is going to hit you. The nose is lightly woody with pears, vanilla and varnish, the chocolate note is very faint but more clear in the empty glass after a while. The palate is warm and oily with pear, vanilla, wood and chocolate. The finish is long and warm with smoky wood, dried fruit and light vanilla.
Review by DomM
Quite light and fruity compared to other/older PMs. Feels somewhat juvenile but in a positive way. Alcohol is well integrated. Good choice for the hotter summer nights.
Review by Johannes
Not quite my cup of tea. I actually like the PM characteristics, but it's a little too young for me. It also has whisky influences, slightly peaty and smoky notes. Finish?
Review by Wernie
Tasting and bottle kill in one. Not a grenade among the Guyanas, but still quite tasty. Surprisingly fruity on the nose, fresh and sweetish. Initially sweetish and chocolaty on the palate, then turning woody/toasty, plus the known musty gauze😀. I enjoyed drinking it in a friendly circle after grilling.
Review by Zorman 🇩🇰
Very fruity and not much else, so a bit 1-dimensional. No alkohol burn. Consistent in nose and mouth.
