Colour: Pale gold.
Nose: Even if I hadn’t read the MPM mark on the bottle I could have guessed it’s a Port Mourant in the first nose! Steel, old scraps, dark chocolate, herbal notes. It’s fresh and powerful.
Mouth: This is sweeter than the nose, alcohol is well integrated. Metallic notes dominate the mouth. Wet wood, cocoa beans and « Granny Smith » apples. No surprises here, it’s very bitterish.
Finish: Long. Cake, vanilla, hints of sugar, pudding. What a beautiful contrast with the nose and the mouth!

My opinion: Port Mourant.

The finish is really impressive, way more than the mouth and the nose.

Score: 88

Colour: Pale gold.
Nose: Apples, vanilla, cinnamon, apple pie, pears and plastic. It’s slightly peppered, iodized and fresh.
Mouth: Nice oily texture and the alcohol is perfectly integrated. The apples dominate the whole mouth, seasoned with spices. Light wood, smoke, vanilla, black olives, chillies and some metallic and bitter notes.It’s very complex!
Finish: A bit too short. Burnt wood, mint freshness, herbal notes and fresh soil.

My opinion: Port Mourant.

If the finish could have been longer this one would have been even more amazing. Maybe the greatest continental Port Mourant I ever tasted, good job!

Score: 90

Colour: Copper
Nose: It’s very sweet and powerful in the same time. Caramel, wood, bourbon vanilla, cherries, cocoa and spicy notes.
Mouth: That’s thick and warm. Alcohol is perfectly integrated. Bunch of grapes, black pepper, spicy notes, noble wood and caramel. I can taste the Port Mourant metallic notes but it’s less noticeable than the previous ones.
Finish: Very long. Caramel, coco, vanilla, butter, bitter and brown sugar.

My opinion: Port Mourant.

This one is totally different than every rum I tasted in those two articles because of the tropical ageing I suppose. It’s rounder than a continental Port Mourant and I can now understand the excitement about those Velier bottlings!

Score: 91

Colour: Coffee. It’s the darkest of the seven.
Nose: It’s blasting! Strong coffee, chocolate, butter, fresh cream, almonds, bunch of dried fruits. It’s very nice.
Mouth: It’s way sweeter than the nose but still full of flavours. Salted butter caramel, brown sugar, iodine, liquorice, moka and roasted notes. Very well balanced!
Finish: Long. Very fresh with the peppermint, dark chocolate and cappuccino.

My opinion: Savalle still.

This one is awesome and actually really close to an Enmore. Where could I find a bottle of this gem?
