Introducing the El Dorado 2009 Port Mourant 12yo, a true gem from Guyana's rich rum heritage. This 2009-vintage rum is part of El Dorado's prestigious Single Still series, crafted using the historic Port Mourant double wooden pot still, originally housed at the Port Mourant distillery. This unique rum was matured for 12 years in oak casks, resulting in a 40% ABV spirit that strikes a perfect balance between complexity and elegance. On the nose, the El Dorado 2009 Port Mourant 12yo opens with inviting aromas of oak, vanilla, and molasses, intertwined with spicy undertones and hints of tropical fruits. The palate is a delightful blend of caramel, banana, pineapple, and smoke, complemented by the robust presence of oak. As the flavors develop, you will also detect notes of creamy milk chocolate, roasted coffee beans, and a delicate hint of cigar box. The finish is long-lasting, with a spicy kick, rich chocolate, and a lingering sweetness that leaves a memorable impression. El Dorado's dedication to preserving traditional rum-making techniques shines through in this exquisite bottling, making it a must-have for any rum connoisseur.
The Port Mourant still is unique because it is a double wooden pot still, which imparts distinctive, complex flavors to the rum. This still is one of the few remaining wooden pot stills in the world, adding historical significance to each bottle.
Aging in oak casks allows the rum to develop greater complexity and depth of flavor, as the spirit interacts with the wood over time. This process imparts notes of oak, vanilla, and spice to the rum.
You can expect a harmonious blend of caramel, tropical fruits like banana and pineapple, smoky undertones, and a rich, spicy finish.
As a rum enthusiast, the El Dorado 2009 Port Mourant 12yo truly stands out for its intricate flavor profile and historical significance. The interplay of tropical fruit notes with smoky, caramel, and oak nuances offers an exceptionally satisfying tasting experience. This bottle is a testament to El Dorado's mastery in rum production and is a worthy addition to any collection.
