Review by Joachim Guger
First dominates PM - licorice, green apple, anise, oak and strong mocha. If you let him breathe, comes the SVW portion with caramel and some coconut. Then a nice lovely perfume note at the end. Very complex, balanced, interesting, alcohol barely noticeable.Warm, full-bodied and oily in the mouth. Very good!Epic finish.Great tropical ripened Demerara!!! But I must confess that the 1996 Enmore or the Albion excite me a notch more. 🥲 For PM fans a must.
Review by Jakob
A highlight in the El Dorado Rare Collection. Pleasant sweetness thanks to the Diamond profile from tropical aging, combined with the rather dry notes of the Port Mourant style – it fits together excellently. Holds up very well against the Velier releases – and maybe even a bit more. Very good.

26.10.2025 Part 2 / Evening Session Today we have an El Dorado Rare Cask online tasting and I've been looking forward to it. I will keep the score and just enjoy the rums and I have all of them on my shelves as well. ---------------- Yet another great rum from El Dorado. They have mastered to make yet another masterpiece from Guyana!
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Strong, very aromatic blend, in which, according to my impression, the PM portion predominates, especially on the nose, which I like quite a bit. Really solid rum, full of character, but can not hold a candle to the AN and SWR of El Dorado. Update 2022-11-28: First impression fully confirmed at second tasting.
Review by Tim
On the nose rather PM with hints of round Diamond aromas, in the mouth rather Diamond with PM spices. Overall, a great rum that I like more than a pure PM, especially on the nose, as it seems more accessible and rounder. Mint is dominant on the palate, also very bitter, dry and earthy. Heavy barrel flavors, musty earth, roasty coffee, all sorts of spice and some fruit. Reminds me a little of one or two Jamaican representatives (WP or Hampden).
Review by Giorgio Garotti
A great blend where PM and Diamond match perfectly! The PM comes out dark and oily right away where it keeps the main part of this rum and the Diamond helps balance everything! Nice herbal part that helps to balance! A great rum!
Review by DomM
Summary of the nose: „enhanced PM“ 😁 To me PM is clearly dominating, but enriched by the Diamond component adding some more fruity notes and complexity to the mix.
Review by Tschusikowsky
Very good overall balance. It is spicy, complex, concentrated aromas, all very harmonious and coherently integrated. Deep flavor profile with good tropical maturity. I liked it very much. The rum scores particularly well with me at the end.
Review by Rodolphe
I've been wanting to test it for a while. It is very good. On the nose, the dying port reigns supreme with its wet wood and doesn't let the diamond show its nose too much... In the mouth, more greediness than expected, the Prune and the chocolate are there, with a whole dose of spices. For me it remains however much less nice than the top trio: Sheldon/diamond CBH/Albion. First of all because it goes a bit in all directions, and it is less pleasant to taste, simply.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Hätte ich im Leben nicht mit gerechnet... Als würde man eine Honig Banane mit saurer Limette beträufeln danach tabakblätter, Thymian und Minze drüber werfen und dann in eine Ledercouch beißen! Unfassbar komplex und sehr gut ausbalanciert. Top blend!
Review by TheRhumhoe
Une superbe cuvée d’El Dorado, avec un assemblage entre Diamond et Port Mourant. Le nez est d’une grande complexité, alliant l’originalité et la vivacité de Port Mourant à la rondeur lourde et expressive de Diamond. On retrouve un boisé humide, frais et parsemé de fleurs et d’herbes, suivi par des fruits lourds et gourmands (pruneau, noix de coco, banane, agrumes sur le citron vert et le zeste d’orange) et le tout enveloppé d’épices, de tabac, et d’une douceur écrasante typique de Demerara avec un gros caramel et une mélasse réglissée. Un rhum à la fois puissant et élégant, subtil et expressif. L’attaque en bouche est intensément chaude et profonde. Le profil Demerara ressort avec une chaleur épicée, des notes amères sur le cacao, le café, la réglisse et le cuir, le boisé pimenté, le tabac et des fruits secs et tropicaux. C’est un profil à la fois riche, généreux et plein de charme, qui fait preuve de beaucoup d’intensité. L’alcool est très bien intégré. La finale est très longue, collante avec des fruits secs et du zeste d’orange, des épices chaudes et des arômes sombres et amers qui viennent tapisser le palais pour une expérience gustative des plus agréables. Tabac, chocolat noir, cuir, épices et moka confèrent un profil à la fois corsé et gourmand. Clairement une cuvée sous-cotée, car la qualité du jus est indéniable et il est étonnant qu’il soit encore possible de le trouver à ce prix.
Review by SaibotZtar
On the nose, licorice, tobacco, mint, aniseed... Plums, orange and green apple. Very spicy... It drops slightly on the palate First some sweetness followed by bitter notes, leather wood mint some pencil.... some plum and chocolate. Fruitiness is rather less to be found, rather dark heavy and spicy are the strengths of this blend.
Review by Thunderbird
A successful blend with a focus on PM, I find it very balanced and complex! Wonderful for a relaxed evening
Review by Leo Krüper
