Whisky drinkers curious about Demerara pot-still should meet this one. It's an unusually fresh, almost agricole-like Port Mourant — sour white grapes, smoke, brine and a distinct Islay-like maritime edge that had one taster reaching for Bowmore comparisons. At 60.3% it packs real alcoholic punch, though several found it well carried. Only a "small touch of sweetness" from the refill cask. Challenging, and proud of it.

How does Liquid Treasures Diamond 2008 taste?
Summarized by AI from 13 community reviews.
Fresh, smoky Port Mourant with an Islay streak Divides the room: most call it a fresh, smoky, briny PM worth the ride, while one found it too bitter and medicinal. Not a gentle sipper.

Typical, somewhat beastly PM.

Extremely bitter, musty, salty, medicinal, and woody. Unfortunately, not my cup of tea at all... Very reminiscent of Islay whiskey such as Bowmore or Talisker.
Review by m8375e
small touch of sweetness coming from the cask. prefer a slightly more austere PM but still very good.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
We're on a nose after mowing the lawn. PMs are always special, with all the traditional markers present: smoky, burnt, woody. It's not crazy, but you want to try it. On the palate, it's fat and smoky. It's close to certain whiskies. It's long, but not long enough for my taste, with herbaceous notes. It's always nice to dive back into a PM, but I still have my unrivalled personal reference of L'Esprit en PM.
Review by RumTaTa
The nose is already very exciting: first whisky, smoke, salty oysters, followed by peach. Very challenging! In terms of taste, you might think you are trying an Islay whisky. A little sweetness also comes through. And old port wine! In the finish, whisky, smoke, salt, and a distinct dryness again.
Review by Alex1981
Salty/briny/coastal PM. Smoky with some sweetness from dark fruits in the background. Finish is more vegetal, I like the journey! And the label as well :-)
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Tasted it blind. Very untypical Port Mourant. Fresh like an agricole. Probably refill cask. I get a Cognac-y feel from it. Sour white grapes. Lot of alcoholic punch but not unpleasant. Cool stuff.
