Habitation Velier Port Mourant White 2015
A white Port Mourant is the surprise here — the famous double wooden pot still, caught before a single day in a cask. Expect varnish and solvent, green apple, earthy autumn-leaf notes, black tea and a genuine smoky streak that catches a lot of tasters off guard. At 59% the alcohol sits shockingly well-integrated. Several members call it one of the most interesting whites they've had.
The community says- Smoky green profile
- ABV well-integrated

#21st dec RumXCalendar Blind tasting: Nose: varnish, polish, green apple, peaches, earthy, smoky, anise Mouth: complex, molasses, earthy, black tea, grapefruit, peppery, woody?? Finish: mid long, molasses, bitter, varnish, menthol, smoky, mango, fruity My prediction: This could be from Guyana PM and i think I already had this in glass ca. 60%

The HV PM white had to be compared to the Underdog Split #2. Somehow earthy on the nose or a bit like autumn leaves on the ground, I also thought of sourdough. Pretty wacky. I don't have the familiar PM markers like olive (especially with the continental ones) here at all. But surprisingly round on the palate. The ABV is well integrated.
Review by Thunderbird
RumX Day21: Blind: Was here more with the Ghana White, of course again missed 😁! I really like the PM, a concise nose, alcohol very well integrated and complex on the palate! The is really "quaffable"!
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un Port Mourant non vieilli et donc très atypique. Le nez démarre sur les épices, les notes fumées, anisées et un soupçon d’amandes grillées, avant de laisser place à des notes plus végétales, terreuses et florales et des arômes fruités de pêche et de pomme. Le vernis et les arômes minéraux complètent ce nez pour le moins complexe et original. En bouche, l’attaque est assez vive, astringente et marquée par des notes épicées (anis, cannelle, poivre, piment), des notes plus sombres sur le cuir et le fumé, mais aussi des effluves terreuses et végétales (thé noir). On retrouve les fruits tropicaux, les solvants ainsi que le vernis qui donnent du caractère. Un profil intense et varié, marqué par la fougue mais dont l’alcool reste très bien intégré. La finale est un poil courte, amère, sèche et légèrement moins fruitée. Les notes épicées, rôties et végétales se partagent une fin de bouche assez homogène et structurée. Un très joli rhum blanc, spécial mais qui fonctionne bien. Il serait intéressant d’adapter les styles de rhum vieux de Demerara en mode « non vieilli » pour voir ce que le distillat originel peut valoir.

Now I know why I'm not a fan of port mourant... No wonder when the unripened version already tastes like licorice, nutmeg, musty burnt wood, eucalyptus tea and sulfurous raisins 😂 Wacky stuff but I don't need it again! Alcohol surprisingly well integrated!
Review by Skyfly
RumX-Adventskalender 2022: angenehmer unaged PM. Viel Lack/ Lösungsmittel und unterschiedliche tropische Früchte. Daneben viele pflanzliche und erdige Aromen, fast etwas modrig. Alkohol perfekt eingebunden.
Review by DomM
Very interesting to see the PM characteristics in an unaged bottling. Honestly, I think this unaged version is more enjoyable than some more recent younger continentally aged PM bottlings. Cheers to Stylo for sharing his bottle. 🙌
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
The second bottle that arrived today and I rarely get in touch with good white rums. This one is a great white rum well worth the price tag and I can definitely recommend that people give it a chance.
Review by Stylo
Here we have one true premiere..when it was bottled and sold, I had no idea that a White Port Mourant even existed..the nose is indeed grassy and green, although I do sense a slightly burnt, roasted flavor, along with some pepper. The fruits are more on the background (I get apple and pineapple). The palate is interesting, more savory and peppery, with more grassy and earthy notes. The finish is slightly smoky, with hints of wet paint.

Review by Mirco
Äusserst interessantes Destillat! Wundert demnach nicht, dass die gelagerten Versionen so ausdrucksstark vertretten sind. Auch die Basis ist mega floral und dennoch verbrannt. Schwarztee mit dessen Bitterstoffen aber auch etwas Frucht.
Review by RumTaTa
Schöne bunte Nase, obwohl die Dimensionen von der Fasslagerung fehlen. Am Gaumen auch gut, ich finde spannend, wie stark rauchig der Rum ist! Erinnert mich irgendwie an Zirbenkieferschnaps. Die Aromen sind leider schnell verschwunden. Sehr guter ungelagerter Port Mourant mit interessanten Rauchnoten. Es ist schön den Rum kennengelernt zu haben aber eine Flasche brauche ich davon nicht.

Rum X Advent 21.12.22 Blind, this rum was a special journey and difficult to categorize. I had no idea. Only when the glass was empty did the PM scents come to me.
Review by Sylvain44
Advent calendar 21 se RumX, very sulphurous nose, peppery mouth, aniseed and vegetal, not so much my taste!
Review by Christian Rudt
Class here to have a white PM in the glass. Great complexity, alcohol well integrated and no wood furniture storage (sorry S.B.S😄)if I now think that in Guyana still Jamaica-like High Ester Rums slumber, then I hope that the hundredth request may sometime bring forth another treasure. ☺️
Review by Jarek
For 59% it comes across very mild. Unfortunately I only have a 2cl sample, not enough to test it in a cocktail.
Review by Tom Buteneers
RumXmas 2022, #21, blind: I have a little bit of experience with unaged rums, but little to none with unaged Guyana, what I believe that this is. The profile reminds me of a 2 year old PM that I have at home (RX12656) so the HV that is mentioned by Serge could fit. I know that S.B.S has released a couple of unaged PM’s as well, but I haven’t tasted any of them. So @Serge, I’m on your team today 💯🥳
Review by Benoit Mahe
A very aromatic and pleasant white. A good experience to taste this unaged PM to understand what leads to the peculiarities of the old.
Review by Christoph
Reminds me very much of a mixture of 2001 Skeldon and 2003 Savelle, the latter especially from the sweetness, only that here the storage is missing and thus especially the alcohol is much more present.
