Tasting note:

Nose: Indulge in the elegance and subtlety of this vibrant rum. The aroma of yeast-cake with raisins fills the air, reminiscent of Italian Christmas panettone. But wait, there's something slightly zesty lurking in the background. As you explore further, spices begin to emerge, with hints of hidden cardamom, a touch of chamomile tea, and a subtle menthol note. The esters in this rum lean towards the greener side, seamlessly integrated with sweet and pleasant wood notes, perhaps influenced by mizunara. The scent of scented candles, like violets soaked in beeswax, adds to the allure.

Palate: Prepare to be pleasantly surprised by the boldness of this rum. The expected subtlety takes a backseat as you discover that the cake-like flavors are now coated with a sweet and slightly nutty sauce. The heavier rum that held the finishing cask rounds out the experience, adding an unexpected smokiness. The sweetness and intensity increase, revealing the character of Port Mourant, with its serious and spicy profile. The wood integration is skillfully done, with soft tannins that may be influenced by mizunara. This is a rum that demands your full attention. Sit back, relax, and dive into its complexity.

Finish: The finish is slightly smoky and carries a hint of chemicals, accompanied by a touch of vanilla. Mineral notes and soft tannins linger on the palate together with the waxy sensation. The enjoyment continues, as this rum takes its time to unfold and captivate. The journey is far from over, inviting you to savor each moment a bit longer.
