Whisky & Rhum Port Mourant L‘Esprit 2005
"The nose I like better than the taste, but overall I like it," is how one member sums up this Port Mourant. Expect fresh pineapple and citrus up front, then a rougher palate: woody, peppery, metallic, with that classic PM anise-and-licorice spice. A bright, iodine-tinged Guyanese pot-still at cask strength — more mineral and dry than sweet.
The community says- Fresh fruity nose
- Classic PM spice

Très bon PM
Review by Santo
Fresh buttery and vegetal with lots of citrus. Very good PM
Review by Oliver
Great, fresh and tangy PM. Personally, a tad too much citrus.
Review by Frank
Nose: spicy-fruity, dried and slightly sulfured apricot. But also a citrus freshness. Cherry and a muted sweetness as of honeycomb. There's also some nice floral and vanilla.Palate: intense and powerful. No more fruitiness and floral. Bitter salty woody. And something metallic. Iodine. The spiciness goes possibly in the direction of cardamom.Finish: woody bitter, some herbsI like the nose better than the taste, but overall it pleases.
Review by JB
Nez particulier et très (trop ?) complexe pour moi. Très métallique. En bouche une attaque puissante assez florale ou herbacée qui se transforme en beurrée et ronde. Le finale fait pensée au pruneau à l'eau de vie. Je n'ai pas trop apprécié.
