Rum Nation Port Mourant Small Batch Rare Rums 2001
Licorice and anise up front, backed by plum, pear and dried fruit, with a resinous, oaky spine. This is a cask-strength 2001 Port Mourant from Rum Nation, and the recurring note in reviews is heat — the 57.6% ABV flattens a lot of the fruit on the palate. Several tasters also catch an eau-de-vie / whisky edge. Classic PM profile, just not the most balanced one.
The community says- Lovely fruity nose
- Licorice and plum
- But: Alcohol dominates palate

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
19.12.2020 Nice tasting shortly before Christmas in a private area of the bar. Unfortunately this very old bar closed down in 2023. Notes Light to medium dark colour. Nose Wood, light smoke, dried fruit, light licorice, nutty. Palate Light wood, faint roasted, medium dry, metallic, plum, licorice, light chocolate. Finish Medium to long, wood, raisin, plum, light smoke.
Review by DosenZorn
Tasted as a 3cl sample. In the nose first ne really nice plum note, followed by banana, solvent and licorice. Taste-wise, the alcohol has too much force for me. Makes it hard to taste subtleties. Taste-wise, quite little fruit compared to the nose, wood, licorice and spice instead. Finishes dry and slightly fruity, but doesn't linger too long. For 170€ bottle price according to the app (as of 03.02.2022) I think you get better rums.
Review by Thunderbird
Ich hatte diesen PM im direkten Vergleich zummHigh Spirit im Glas. Obwohl dieser deutlich mehr ABV hat, fällt er doch klar gegenüber dem High Spirit ab. Die Aromen sind nicht so präsent und vielfältig. Es fehlt auch die Harmony. Er wirkt leicht anstrengend
Review by cigares
A 2001 Port Mourant with a nose of pear and fruit brandy.a full mouthfeel with pear, wood, spices and leather.a long finish on spices.same profile as the RX 6236, but a little bit more harmonious. Not my kind of rum.Thanks Rodolphe for the sample.
Review by RumTaTa
The rum comes up with a surprise right at the beginning: I find a resin note in the nose!Palate: typical Port Mourant but unfortunately quite alcoholic. Very balanced and complex!Finish: communication with pleasantly little wood and bitter notes.
Review by Christoph
Compared to the Enmore 2002 clearly less woody in the nose and from the smell it really invites very much to drink. Once in the mouth, however, one is somewhat disappointed by the charred fruit with relatively few flavors. The pleasant fruit notes in the nose disappear unfortunately also after a short standing time and give way to a rather alcoholic smell.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Really very convincing Port Mourant. Only because of the incomplete tropical maturity not quite at the level of the PM 1993 from Velier with 65% (RX2729) tasted at the same time - but much more affordable (although also hard to find).
Review by Wagnerlicious
A very powerful PM. The nose gets great notes of plum, pear, apple and spices. The alcohol is very dominant on the palate. Pear, sherry, and plum, wood and leather, licorice, pineapple, mirabelle plum, also some eucalyptus. Very rich.
Review by Rodolphe
A good old PM. It's quite complete, marked by wood and bitterness but without exaggeration, mixing the typical spices anise and licorice and the side of brandy, stone fruits (cherries/plums). Nice when you like this profile.
Review by Serge
Compared to the SBS PM 1999, 24yo rx15447. This one is more fruity and the SBS is more herbal with licorice and apple. I like the maturity of the SBS a little better and this one doesn't convince me as much, especially on the palate.
Review by Timo Groeger
Leckerer Rum. Danke an Gunnnar für das Sample. Riecht ziemlich fassig, nussig und auch nach tropischen Früchten. Finde er schmeckt ziemlich alkoholisch, nach Whisky und Obstler. Alkohol trotzdem gut eingebunden. Lecker.
Review by Andi
An der Nase etwas rauchig, Lakritze, getrocknete Früchte, Holz leicht fassig. Am Gaumen dann etwas Leder, leichte Obstler Erinnerungen werden bei mir wach gerüttelt. Getrocknete Früchte, Holz, Lakritze.
Review by Mopar Rules
Like the SBS a quite uninspiring rum with more fruitiness but very light and with no depth at all. Johny Walker bottled?
Review by Johannes
Typical Port Mourant profile. For me, it could be aged longer.
Review by Baboune
Strange. very pleasant smell, but very powerful in the mouth. very long finish. a lot of explosion in the mouth. but! Amateur of soft rum it is not your style . hard and pronounced alcohol Beautiful discovery to put in the cellar with rum
