Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
01.02.2025 Retasting at the "Nordlichter Treffen 2025". Still a very good rum in my mind and always happy to try such old golden drops. --------------------------- Got this one as a present for my 40th. and also have notes. A very dark rum, very oily and fruity. I think there is a floral/flowery note in there as well. The bottle is long gone but I would have loved a few backups.
Review by Christoph H.
An incredibly intense and complex aroma bomb, even outside the surroundings are flooded with it. Very old, wet and musty wood. Concentrated treacle, hardly any PM plays with it so intensely. Dried plums, dates and raisins. Fresh pipe tobacco, black tea and finally some herbs and mocha It starts off pleasantly sweet and oily, with this intense treacle with brown sugar and concentrated stewed plums. After a few seconds, the enormous spiciness in the form of wet wood, cask, herbs, tobacco and aniseed follows and then combines perfectly with the bitterness, which becomes increasingly intense in the finish. I don't find the bitterness at all disturbing here, as it simply fits the profile of the PM in the mouth and everything together forms a harmonious "symbiosis" For me, this is a very complete Port Mourant that leaves little to be desired if you are generally a fan of this old style. For a long time, the exceptionally high availability and rather low prices on the secondary market gave the impression that this was a classic underdog. Conversations with friends confirmed this, among other things. An assumption that was completely wrong

Nordlichtertreffen: Danke an MoparRules für diese tolle Gelegenheit! In der Nase überreif, Pflaume. Rosine aber auch Fass und feine Kräuternoten. Auf der Zunge dann komplex und schwer. Dunkle Schokolade, tropische Früchte, Sirup?!. Auch hier Rosine aber auch Nuss und ne gute Portion Holz die sich auch Im langen Abgang bemerkbar macht und mit dunkler Schokolade und Kaffee verschmilzt.
Review by Johannes
Once again an extremely good PM in the old style. Rather musty-woody on the nose, not a plum bomb on the palate, but still fruity, woody, slightly bitter, alcohol well integrated. Long finish.
Review by Schnubbi
In der Nase verbranntes Karamell, Trockenfrüchte und etwas Walnuss, mit etwas Zeit dazu Liebstöckel. Am Gaumen eine Symphonie aus Trockenfrüchten, roten Früchten, Karamell. Unglaublich rund und ausgewogen. Etwas bitteres Holz. Es passt einfach alles. Im langen Abgang klingen die Früchte aus und es bleibt die Walnuss.
Review by Johannes Eisner
Wet, musty wood with prune on the nose, then very balanced on the palate without anything standing out.
Review by Jakob
Exemplary for the profile of the great Demeraras from the 70s, only with the downer that the alcohol is clearly less gallantly integrated compared to other outstanding representatives of this unfortunately long-gone era. This results in a slight imbalance, to which probably also the last refinement falls victim - I miss here, for example, even more concise dried fruit notes. Overall, however, the bottling still hits the core of the Demerara longing profile and puts the bulk of today's Guyana bottlings effortlessly in the bag.
